Compensation Arguments on Conservation Tasks

Peer reviewed

Goodnow, Jacqueline J. – Developmental Psychology, 1973

Results of this study help to account for some of the disparity between Genevan and non-Genevan data and suggest the need for caution in inferring processes leading to conservation from the types of reason given. (Author/CB)

Identity and Equivalence Conservation at Two Age Levels

Peer reviewed

Elkind, David; Schoenfeld, Eva – Developmental Psychology, 1972

Results confirm the hypothesis that identity and equivalence conservation require different mental processes. (Authors/MB)

Modeling by Exemplification and Instruction in Training Conservation

Peer reviewed

Rosenthal, Ted L.; Zimmerman, Barry J. – Developmental Psychology, 1972

Four experiments are described in which observational learning was found on multidimensional conservation tasks. (MB)

Relation between Identity Conservation and Equivalence Conservation within Four Conceptual Domains

Peer reviewed

Moynahan, Ellen; Glick, Joseph – Developmental Psychology, 1972

Results indicate that identity conservation generally does not precede equivalence conservation; instead the two conservations tend to co-occur. (Authors)

The Effects of Training and Socioeconomic Class upon the Acquisition of Conservation Concepts

Peer reviewed

Figurelli, Jennifer C.; Keller, Harold R. – Child Development, 1972

Lower-class children required significantly more training task repetitions to learn a conservation task than did middle-class children. (Authors)

Order of Acquisition of Number and Quantity Conservation

Peer reviewed

Brainerd, Charles J.; Brainerd, Susan H. – Child Development, 1972

Analyses revealed consistent support for the hypothesis that number conservation is developmentally prior to liquid quantity conservation. (Authors)
