Teachers’ Attitudes and Experiences Regarding Death Education in the Classroom
Development of elementary deductive reasoning in young children
This study examined the claim (Hawkins, Pea, Glick, & Scribner, 1984) that young children can reason deductively with content for which «practical knowledge is irrelevant». Ss 6, 8, and 11 years of age were given a set of standard logical syllogisms and a matching set of illogical ones
Assigning vicarious responsibility
An experiment tested three hypotheses about the conditions under which someone can be held vicariously responsible for the actions of another. Two of the hypotheses received empirical support: that the vicariously responsible person is in a superior relationship to the person who caused the damage and is able to control that person's causing of the damage. A third hypotheis, that a person is held vicariously responsible because of a relatively gr…
A two-year follow-up of hyperactive preschoolers
Twenty hyperactive children and 21 controls, studied in a research nursery at age four, were followed up at six-and-a-half. Hyperactives were still reported to have more behavior problems. Those rated extremely active in the nursery requested more feedback and made more comments in interactions with their mothers, and also made more immature moral judgments; children rated only moderately active did not differ from controls on these measures
Hyperactivity in preschoolers and the effect of methylphenidate
Observations of nursery behavior and tests of cognitive style and motor impulsivity were carried out with 28 hyperactive preschool children of normal intelligence and 26 matched control children. The hyperactive group was also observed and tested on methylphenidate and placebo. Methylphenidate was found to reduce hyperactivity at home, but it did not improve nursery behavior or psychological functioning. Unwanted side effects made the drug less u…
