Summary : Development of categorization : Is late class inclusion failure explained by a lack of inhibition ? The present study is based Levine and Prueitt's (1989) neural network model which links categorization capacities to neural maturation of the frontal lobes. We studied Houdé et Joyes's hypothesis (1995) that postulates that children fail in certain « modified » inclusion tasks at 8 to 12 years old due to lack of inhibition rather than lack of internal logic. A regression analysis shows that two inhibition tasks (the Trail Making test and the Stroop test) account for 50 % of the variance in class inclusion performances. Links between development of inhibitory processes and categorization capacities are discussed. Key words : class-in...
