N2  - A modification of the Matching Familiar Figures Test containing items of varying numbers of response alternatives was given to seventeen impulsive and seventeen reflective first and second grade children who were ascertained by conventional methods. The slopes of the linear functions relating errors and latencies to alternative number significantly differentiated between impulsive and reflective groups. Significant correlations were also observed between latency and error slopes and an impulsivity score computed independently from group data. Since the differences were larger for the latency data, it was proposed that the slope of the relationship between response latencies and alternative set size can be used as a parametric index of reflection-impulsivity.<p />
