三个实验通过改变提示透明度（审核员）、透明提示、视觉透明提示的程度，检查了将提示转化为任务目标的口头表示的难度。高级维度变化卡片分类中的视觉任意线索）。这需要根据提示在颜色排序和形状排序之间切换规则。实验一表明，5 岁和 6 岁儿童的表现随着提示透明度的变化而提高。实验 2 产生了相同的结果模式，并表明提示透明度效应不能仅通过提示形式来解释。最后。实验 3 检查了 Cue 透明度对 7 岁和 9 岁儿童以及成人的影响。随着年龄的增长，准确性性能的影响会降低，但延迟的影响不会降低。这表明在某些条件下，在内部言语高效的个体中仍然可以观察到提示翻译的困难。总体而言，这些研究结果表明，目标设定极大地促进了儿童的灵活行为，并继续影响成人的表现。
Three experiments examined the difficulty of translating cues into verbal representations of task goals by varying the degree of cue transparency (auditor), transparent cues, visual transparent cues. visual arbitrary cues) in the Advanced Dimensional Change Card Sort. which requires switching, between color- and shape-sorting, rules on the basis Of Cues. Experiment I showed that 5- and 6-year-old children's performance improved as a function Of Cue transparency. Experiment 2 yielded the same pattern of results and showed that cue transparency effects cannot be accounted for by cue formal only. Finally. Experiment 3 examined the effect Of Cue transparency in 7- and 9-year-olds and adults. The effect decreased over age for accuracy performance but not for latencies. suggesting that under some conditions, the difficulty of Cue translation can still be observed in individuals whose inner speech is efficient. overall, these findings showed that goal setting Substantially contributes, to children's flexible behaviors and continues to influence adults performance.
