In this study, we investigated the development of basic effects that have been found in single-digit multiplication arithmetic: the problem size, five, and tie effects. Participants (9-,10-, and 11-year-olds and adults) performed a production task on simple multiplication. The procedure replicated Campbell and Graham's (1985) study ["Canadian…
