“…A second purpose of Experiment I was to determine if array arrangements and intraset size relationships differentially affected the accuracy of responding. A child's capacity to infer relationships may be obscured by the particular task or cue properties (Bryant & Trabasso, 1971;Gollin & Schadler, 1972;Moody & Gollin, 1972). In the present task, errors might be generated differentially by smaller absolute size differences and/or array arrangements.…”

The solution of relational size problems in the context of ordinal series was facilitated when children were directed to locate a terminal member (the smallest) of the series. In contrast, subjects who were instructed to locate a nonterminal member without prior designation of a terminal member were unable to achieve solution of the problem. Age-and sex-related differences in performance were observed as well as differences associated with stimulus arrangements and stimulus sizes. The outcomes were discussed in terms of composite task demands.
