Description: Filmed examples of research over a two-year period, based on the writings of Jean Piaget, into the ordinality of scales of infant development. These scales are used to illustrate an exposition of the findings of this study whose results point to conclusions differing from the long accepted theories of Dr. Gesell. Also useful in preparing researchers for further work in this area.
