Boys Better Than Girls in
Explaining Causes of
Natural Phenomena Sci
entific Association Told
MINNEAPOLIS, July 1. (AP)
Children of the United States. Miss
Jean L. Marquis told the American
Association for the Advancement of
Science, are superior to children of
other countries when It comes to
scientific thinking.
And boys have It all over the girls
In explslnlng causes of such things
as natural phenomena, Miss Marquis
disclosed.
In her work at the University of Min
nesota Jnsltute of Child Welfare.
Miss Marquis said, she found that
most of the results of casual reason
ing In children are mora dependent
upon experience and training than
they are upon development factors.
She ascribed as the reason for this
better scientific thinking among Am
erican children, the "scientific tradi
tion of this couple having permeated
through society."
Some 700 children ranging In age
from eight to J years old were ques
tioned on the causes of natural phe
nomena to guage their development
of reasoning.
They were asked such questions as
"What makes the wind blow," "Whet
causes thunder," "Why does a candle
go out when a Jar la placed over the
flame." Most chlldron, she reported,
gave material on naturalistic causes
as to the answers.
Conversely Investigators found chil
dren of other countries gave many
"pre-loglcal" replies, or explanations
In which somo spirit or force was cre
ated In the child's mind to explain
what happened. Only 13 per cent of
the American children tested. Miss
Marquis reported, even at eight years
old. gave that type of answer.
Miss Ethlyn V. Hurd. also of the
Minnesota Instlute of Child Welfare,
announced a new method devised' by
the lnstltua by which children as
young as two years old could be test
ed satisfactorily for color-blindness.
Previously, she said. It had been nec
essary to wait until a child could
read numbers or letters before an ao
eurate test of the ability to see col
ors could bo made.
