S ummary . Three categories of productive thinking measures were administered to retarded and non‐retarded children of equal mental age. There were no significant differences between retarded children in special class, retarded children in regular class and average children in regular class. The results are discussed in terms of future research and the implication for teacher‐training programmes.
