Abstract
“Universality” has been claimed as one of the major characteristics for theories of cognitive development. Based in part on the work of Piaget and Kohl-berg, Perry developed a cognitive scheme of phases of intellectual development along which students in the USA move during their college years. An inventory designed to assess the Perry's stages of cognitive development of Chinese students was constructed, modeled after several American inventories. Based on responses by 808 Chinese students, cognitive development seemed to proceed in the direction opposite from that of the U.S. students at least during the first three undergraduate years. Explanations include the current environment in Chinese education.
