Epistemic Doubt During Adolescence
Dual systems Competence ←-→ Procedural processing
Individual differences in distinguishing licit from illicit ways of discharging the burden of proof
Revising the Logic of Operations as a Relevance Logic
Piaget’s last writings, particularly those coauthored by Garcia [Piaget and Garcia, 1974, 1989, 1991], contain both a coherent constructivist account of explanation in science [Piaget and Garcia, 1989] and specific suggestions for revising the logic of operations as a logic of meanings, based on the relevance logic of Anderson and Belnap [1975] – see Piaget [1980] and Piaget and Garcia [1991]. The aim of the present article is to demonstrate the …
Epistemic Beliefs and Achievement Motivation in Early Adolescence
This study seeks to establish the relevance of middle school students’ naïve beliefs about knowledge and learning in science to their achievement motivation in this domain. A predominantly Hispanic and lower-income sample of 459 middle school students (sixth through eighth grades) completed measures of epistemic beliefs along with several measures of motivation. Results indicated that a belief that scientific knowledge develops and that justifica…
The Relation of Personal Epistemology to Parenting Style and Goal Orientation in College Mothers
College Mothers' Academic Achievement Goals as Related to their Children's Attitudes Toward Learning
Operational thought and the acquisition of taxonomic relations involving figurative dissimilarity
Atypical exemplars of taxonomic categories (e.g., clothing, furniture) differ from more typical exemplars along figurative dimensions of perceptual and contextual similarity. The advent of operational thought might be expected to facilitate category acquisition because it engenders a competence to suppress figurative dissimilarities and focus on nonfigurative similarities (e.g., common function). Age- and grade-equivalent preoperational and concr…
