Estudio, mediante un "path-analysis", de la influencia del aprendizaje en física en el desarrollo del pensamiento formal

Abstract

This work investigates, by a path -analysis, the strength of the direct causal linkage between the achievement in a High School Physics course and the terminal cognitive developmental level. The general fluid intelligence has been also considered in our study. The little and non -significant value obtained for path coefficient between the two first variables has been interpreted in the context of Piaget's theory.
