I am thinking Kohlberg got his knowledge of Vygotsky through Piaget. Didn't Piaget write his response to Vygotsky in 1962? I don't know why but that sticks in my mind. Kohlberg was sending at least some of his students to Geneva during that period. Possibly one or more of those people brought Vygotsky and Thought and Language back. I remember talking some years back with somebody who was in Geneva during the period who said Piaget kept saying Vygotsky misunderstood him. Who knows, but it seems plausible.

But, frankly, who cares, after all :) AY ________________________________ From: Martin Packer <packer@duq.edu> To: Anton Yasnitsky <the_yasya@yahoo.com>; "eXtended Mind, Culture, Activity" <xmca@weber.ucsd.edu> Sent: Sunday, June 24, 2012 8:43:07 PM Subject: Re: [xmca] empirical evidence (Kohlberg et al., 1968 testing Vygotsky) But Flavell had presented a paper on the same topic 4 years earlier, and was credited in a footnote.
