Abstract The purpose of this study was to investigate error bias (ErB) derived from the child's knowledge construction process in the following dyads: 1) Adult-Child without adult prompting, 2) Child-Child wit...hout prompting and 3) Adult-Child with adult prompting. The result showed ErB was observed in all three dyads; however, its frequency was much higher in Child-Child dyad. Additionally, the same level of knowledge acquisition was observed among Child-Child dyad and Adult-Child with adult prompting dyad. These findings suggested that appropriate adult prompting stimulates the child's knowledge acquisition. However, it cannot be fully explained by ErB. Therefore, when using ErB to examine the child's knowledge construction process, it is imperative to identify the source of errors appropriately.show more
