ARCHAEOLOGISTS, HISTORY of archaeology, NINETEENTH century, BIOGRAPHY (Literary form)
Abstract
A conference paper about the significant archaeological discoveries and life of Dr. Heinrich Schliemann is presented. It discusses his birth on January 6, 1822 and his early life in the town of Mecklenburg-Schwerin, Germany. It details his travels and research in India, China, and Egypt. His research on the ancient city of Troy, Greece is also discussed.
In this study an attempt was made to obtain a developmental dimension for estimating longitudinal development on the basis of cross-sectional data. To check the validity of this approach, the cross-sectional data were compared with true longitudinal data. Forty-three public school children were given a series of conservation tasks in four assessment periods, each 15 months apart, during their first four years of school. Results indicated that: (1) cross-sectional data on cognitive development, when scalogram analyzed, can predict longitudinal direction of development; (2) such developmental scales may better characterize a child's present level of development than deviance scores on IQ-tests; (3) such scales are useful for studying the development of individuals as opposed to groups; and (4) these scales may be helpful in comparing individual rates of development.
