Analogical Minds
Duration
45 minutes
Analogical reasoning is related to everyday learning and scholastic learning and is a robust predictor of g. Therefore, children's ability to reason by analogy is often measured in a school context to gain insight into children's cognitive and intellectual functioning. Often, the ability to reason by analogy is measured by means of conventional, static instruments. Static tests are criticised by researchers and practitioners to provide an overview of what individuals have learned in the past and for this reason are assumed not to tap into the potential for learning, based on Vygotsky's zone of proximal development. This seminar will focus on children's potential for reasoning by analogy, as measured by means of a dynamic test, which has a test-training-test design. In so doing, the potential relationship between dynamic test outcomes and executive functioning will be explored.
