- Abstract
The author discusses impact of differences in social classes on cognitive development of children from different social classes, citing reference to study by Leon Feinstein. He mentions impact of the study by Feinstein on policymakers of Great Britain. He highlights the interpretation made by Feinstein that high performing children from low social classes perform low with increasing age. He notes that academicians should know about work in other disciplines related to the topic they study.
