Does Prior Knowledge of the Compensation Rule Increase Susceptibility to Conservation Training?

Brainerd, Charles J.

Developmental Psychology, 12, 1, 1-5, Jan 76

This article discusses the results of an earlier experiment which demonstrated a relationship between children's prior understanding of the compensation rule and their tendency to benefit from conservation training. These earlier results are then compared to the results of this experiment which employed different procedures and found no such correlation. (JMB)
