| Abstract: | This study examined the responses to Kagan's Reflectivity‐Impulsivity test (and its relevance to temptation to steal dilemmas) of mentally retarded and non‐retarded subjects matched for both MA and CA and for sex. Retarded subjects were less reflective than non‐retarded children when matched on the basis of CA but showed no difference when matched on the basis of MA, confirming findings by Borys and Spitz (1978). |
