Considering the importance of exploring the development of reasoning skills during preschool period and the suitability of using a culturally linguistically relevant story-based approach for the same, the present research intended to profile the reasoning skills in typically developing Indian preschool children between 36 and 72 months using a story-based approach. The specific objectives were to determine the test-retest and inter-rater reliability of reasoning tasks within an existing story-based cognitive-communicative assessment tool and to use this tool to assess the reasoning skills of typically developing Indian preschool children. Reasoning tasks across explanation, prediction and inference domains were evaluated for its psychometric properties and administered to 63 typically developing Indian preschool children attending English medium schools in Mangalore.

Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to develop a new working memory (WM) task tailored for the Indian context, which also evaluates individuals' self-assessment of their performance through a metacognitive approach.
  • Researchers used the ADDIE instructional design model to analyze needs, design the task, validate content, and conduct a pilot study to test its feasibility.
  • Results showed the new Activity Ordering Task (AOT) effectively measures WM and reveals metacognitive insights, proving it to be a valuable tool beyond typical assessments.
