The development of a children's form of your style of learning and thinking is briefly described. Equivalent forms, reliability coefficients from several samples generally proved satisfactory. Normative data for several reference groups are reported. Cautions concerning use of the scale in its present, preliminary form are provided and the scale itself presented.
