Stage, transfer, and academic achievement in dialect-speaking Hawaiian adolescents.

The study reported here is concerned with certain dialect-speaking groups in the United States who do poorly in high school while giving their teachers an impression that they have great intellectual ability and doing well on formal operational tasks. We examined the relation between stage of cognitive development, transfer ability, production ability in Standard English, and school achievement among a sample of high school students in rural Hawaii, speakers of Hawaiian Creole English. A path analysis suggests that transfer ability is the missing ingredient in school performance, and that a habit of active encoding in the classroom, in turn, facilitates transfer.
