An Investigation of Level I and Level Ii Cognitive Processes in the Learning and Recall of Factual and Inferential Information
S ummary . This study relates Jensen's dual‐process theory of cognitive functioning to the performance of 10–11 year‐old children on the learning of both factual and inferential information. Using Digit Span and Raven IQ scores, a total of 84 children was divided into four groups, scoring high and/or low on Level I (associative) and Level II (conceptual) abilities respectively. The performance of these groups was then compared on short‐term recal…
