Abstract
SCHOLNICK, ELLIN KOFSKY. Use of Labels and Cues in Children's Concept Identification. CHILD DEVELOPMENT, 1971, 42, 1849-1858. 96 children varying in sex and age (5 or 7 years) inferred which single cue (circle, square, red or blue) was relevant in 2-stimulus inference tasks. The number of positive instances (0, 1, or 2) and the relevant cue varied. Children either described the color and shape of each stimulus (L), similarities and differences between stimuli (C) or the location of positive and negative instances (I). The L and C groups were equally skillful and superior to the I group. The C group showed a strong form bias; the L group equalized dimensional choices but made more within dimension confusions.
