Children's performance on the ‘give x’ task: a microgenetic analysis of ‘counting’ and ‘grabbing’ behaviour

Abstract: Children's understanding of the cardinal significance of counting is often assessed by the ‘give x’ task, in which they are categorized as ‘counters’ or ‘grabbers’. Previous research indicates a sudden stage‐like shift, implying insight into a principle. Employing a microgenetic approach, the present study was designed to explore whether this dichotomy masks a more subtle pattern. Fifty‐five 39‐ to 58‐month‐olds received five ‘give x’ trials, involving 4, 5, 6, 7, and 10 objects, within a single session counte… Show more

“…In selecting papers for the special issue, our aim has been to try to present as wide a variety of topics and research designs as possible. The papers vary across different domains; theory of mind and inhibitory control (Flynn, 2007), analogical reasoning (Cheshire et al, 2007;Tunteler & Resing, 2007), understanding balance (Philips & Tolmie, 2007), counting (Cheshire et al, 2007;Chetland & Fluck, 2007) and language development (van Dijk & van Geert, 2007). The studies vary across time scales, from trial-by-trial change (Chetland & Fluck, 2007), to developmental trajectories over weeks (Cheshire et al, 2007) or months (Flynn, 2007;van Dijk & van Geert, 2007).…”

This can be measured at the levels of individuals (Chetland & Fluck, 2007;Flynn, 2007;van Dijk & van Geert, 2007), dyadic relationships (Philips & Tolmie, 2007) or in terms of group changes (Cheshire et al, 2007;Philips & Tolmie, 2007).…”
