- Summary:
-
This study investigated the effects of K. J. Klauer's (1989) inductive reasoning training program of teaching children. Effects of training and the range of transfer of the training were assessed. The subjects were 34 third-grade Dutch children of average ability, matched on age, sex, and IQ. Children from the training condition (N=17) received one week training of five 30 minute sessions. Results demonstrated a significant, positive effect on training children's performance of inductive reasoning tasks. A near-far transfer was observed with children able to solve tasks not taught in training. These effects persisted for 4 months. Far-far transfer was not observed because children were not able to solve mathematics tasks that relate to inductive reasoning, for which they had received no training. Implications for training children within the context of regular schools and the range of transfer are discussed. (EH)
