• Spatial Ability and Earth Science Conceptual Understanding (2005, methodology): “Additionally, the GEFT and EFT have exhibited criterion validity by correlations with the RFT. Researchers who have reported use of the GEFT include Piburn et al, 2002; Kwon and Lawson (2000), Brosnan (1998), Firth and Brosnan (2000), and Signorella and Jamison (1978).”
• Students' Science Process Skills within a Cognitive Domain Framework. (2012, result): “However, similar to the current study, research indicates that many high school students do not have the mental capacity for this type of thinking (Kwon & Lawson, 2000; Lawson & McElrath, 1991; Tobin & Capie, 1981).”
• The neuroscience of conceptual learning in science and mathematics (2016, background): “To test this hypothesis, two hundred and ten 13–16 year old Korean secondary school pupils were tested with four tasks known to load on pro-frontal activity, a test of scientific reasoning ability, and a test of air pressure concepts derived from kinetic-molecular theory [55].”
