Popis: The accessibility of cognitive strategies was investigated in 115 mentally retarded adolescents (CA = 14.81, SD = 1.00; IQ = 62.44, SD = 6.66). Three tasks, abstraction, categorical clustering, and sorting, were used. The accessibility of cognitive strategies was found to be related to explicitness of the task requirement. Data were interpreted to be supportive of a production deficiency in the mentally retarded.
