This paper reports the results of an exploratory study designed to examine whether explanation of terms via a process-by-attribute instructional approach would help children's performance on nonstandard comparison tasks involving that attribute.

The treatment consisted of 3 days of brief instruction concerning the definition, comparison, and representation of length. The results indicate that instruction produced significant performance gains.
