AIM: to challange Piaget's study by altering the conditions and methods used.
252 children from Devon. Split into 4 groups: 5 yrs, 3 months. 6 yrs, 3 months. 7 yrs, 3 months. 8 yrs, 3 months.
IV: age, condition, task. DV: errors made.
Condition 1: STANDARD - traditional Piaget task (two questions). Condition 2: ONE JUDGEMENT - only asked one question after transformation. Condition 3: FIXED ARRAY - only saw post transformation.
THREE tasks: Mass, Number, Volume. tested each condition 3 times on each task. 12 trials in total per child. Systematically varied to prevent order effects.
