SEQUENTIAL EVALUATION OF PROBLEM-SOLVING PROCESSES.
HALEY, JOHN V.; RIMOLDI, H.J.A. – 1962
QUESTION-STUDY AS A METHOD FOR INTERPRETING AND MEASURING PROBLEM-SOLVING BEHAVIOR WAS STUDIED. DATA WERE OBTAINED FROM A PREVIOUS STUDY (ED 003 005) AND ANALYZED. ANALYSES WERE PERFORMED TO DETERMINE WHETHER QUESTIONS WERE MORE USEFUL FOR ASSESSING PROBLEM-SOLVING BEHAVIOR THAN ANALYSIS OF SOLUTIONS. TECHNIQUES, FORMULAE, AND RESULTS PERTINENT TO…
