This study examined the knowledge that children (5th grade) and adolescents (8th and 11th grade) have of the effectiveness of strategies for dealing with everyday problems. Two hundred seventeen individuals rated the effectiveness of six strategies presented as solutions to 20 everyday problems (in school or out of the school setting) before and after information was given that added or removed an obstacle from the problem. Strategy effectiveness was dependent on the context of the specific problem. Age differences (favoring older adolescents) and gender differences (favoring females) were found when students'' strategy knowledge was compared with teachers'' strategy knowledge. Students'' strategy knowledge was related to teachers'', parents'', and students'' ratings of the student''s practical intellectual skills as well as to achievement test scores and grades. Implications for the relation between academic and everyday intelligence are drawn.
