Problems with a Play Paradigm: A Reply to Dansky.
Simon, Tony; Smith, Peter K.
Merrill-Palmer Quarterly, v32 n2 p205-09 Apr 1986
In answer to points raised by Dansky (1985) about specific inferences from Simon and Smith's study (1985) and broader issues about a single-session paradigm used in play and problem solving studies, Simon and Smith argue that their study adequately demonstrated how methodological factors in paradigm can swamp the effects of any treatment conditions.
