Abstract

255 boys and 258 girls enrolled in grades 3 through 7 and grade 9 were shown a film containing a series of questions concerning probabilistic events associated with two populations differing in the relative proportions of two characteristics. Significant developmental changes in frequency of correct response occurred, but the level of response differed greatly among questions. Particularly difficult were questions involving knowledge of purported prior events.
