Mengyu Tian; Yuzhu Ji; Runzhou Wang; Hong-Yan Bi – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 2025
A growing body of evidence suggests that children with dyslexia in alphabetic languages exhibit visual-spatial attention deficits that can obstruct reading acquisition by impairing their phonological decoding skills. However, it remains an open question whether these visual-spatial attention deficits are present in children with dyslexia in…

Zerrin Mercan; Adalet Kandir – Education 3-13, 2024
This study discussed the effects of the Early STEAM Education Program on the visual-spatial reasoning skills of children. A pre-test post-test experimental design was used. The study group consisted of 54 students who attended a state kindergarten in Gaziantep in Turkey. The effectiveness of the Early STEAM Education Program was tested by…

Giannis Karagiannakis; Marie-Pascale Noël; Anna Baccaglini-Frank; Cristiano Termine – Discover Education, 2024
By the end of primary school, children are expected to acquire a range of mathematical skills that progressively develop. This study aimed to gain insight into how a large number of numerical and geometrical measures are grouped and whether the structures shift or remain invariant along child's development based on the data obtained from a sample…

Hu, Qiong; Liang, Zhanhong; Zhou, Yanlin; Feng, Shanshan; Zhang, Qiong – British Journal of Educational Psychology, 2023
Background: Previous studies indicated that working memory (WM) updating and WM capacity play essential roles in mathematical ability. However, it is unclear whether WM capacity mediates the effect of WM updating on mathematics, and whether the cascading effects vary with different mathematical domains. Aims: The current study aims to explore the…

Kus, Mehtap; Cakiroglu, Erdinc – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 2022
This study aimed to investigate seventh-grade students' visuospatial thinking processes in an art studio environment, where students were engaged with geometrically rich artworks. The students were asked to observe minimalist artworks, then create and critique their own and others' artworks based on the Studio Thinking Framework. Data were…

Mehtap Kus; Nora S. Newcombe – International Journal of STEM Education, 2025
Background: Disembedding is a crucial spatial thinking skill in visual arts and mathematics education. It is important in creating and analyzing artworks by separating a figure from its background, as well as for solving geometric problems where shapes must be viewed from new perspectives. Drawing upon research in psychology, arts, and mathematics…

Layes, Smail; Lalonde, Robert; Rebai, Mohamed – International Journal of Disability, Development and Education, 2023
Although the link between developmental dyslexia and visual-spatial deficit has been recurrently highlighted, the relationship between visual-spatial abilities and reading performance is still a controversial issue, considering the orthographic variability of the language being learned. This study aimed to examine whether visuo-spatial abilities…

Li, Danfeng; Zhang, Xuejing; Zhang, Li – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 2023
Developmental dyscalculia (DD) is a mathematics learning disorder that affects approximately 5% to 7% of the population. This study aimed to detect the underlying domain-specific and domain-general differences between DD and typically developing (TD) children. We recruited 9-year-old primary school children to form the DD group via a 2-year…

Xin Wei; Susu Zhang; Jihong Zhang; Jennifer Yu – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2023
For autistic students receiving special education services, little is known about their relative strengths, weaknesses, and enjoyment across different math content areas; their overall math interest and persistence are also not well-studied. Using the 2017 eighth-grade National Assessment of Education Progress data, this study finds, relative to…

Demir, Eda; Ilhan, Onur Alp; Sevgi, Sevim – Bulletin of Education and Research, 2023
The purpose of the study was to determine the association between van Hiele geometric thinking levels and circular achievement exam results for middle school students in 7th grade. The design of the study was a survey method. 157 middle school students were participated into study from three different schools in Kayseri in the spring semester of…

Carretti, Barbara; Giofrè, David; Toffalini, Enrico; Cornoldi, Cesare; Pastore, Massimiliano; Lanfranchi, Silvia – Developmental Psychology, 2022
Several models of working memory (WM) have been proposed in the literature. Most of the research on the architecture of WM is based on adults or older children, but less is known about younger children. In this study, we tested various models of WM on a sample of 739 Italian children, ranging in age from 3 to 8 years, primarily of European…

Reinwein, Joachim; Tassé, Serge – Journal of Psycholinguistic Research, 2022
Are oral sentences accompanied by pictures easier to understand than written sentences accompanied by the same pictures? This question--intensely discussed for more than two decades in educational, psychological, and psycholinguistic research in terms of "modality effect in multimedia learning," "split-attention effect," or…

Liu, Saifang; Cheng, Chen; Wu, Peiqian; Zhang, Liming; Wang, Zhengjun; Wei, Wenjun; Chen, Yuan; Zhao, Jingjing – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 2022
A number of previous studies have identified cognitive deficits in developmental dyscalculia (DD). Yet, most of these studies were in alphabetic languages, whereas few of them examined Chinese DD. Here, we conducted a study aiming to determine the cognitive factors associated with DD in Chinese children. Five candidate cognitive factors of…

Allen, Katie; Giofrè, David – Educational Psychology, 2021
Despite evidence for the involvement of working memory in mathematics attainment, the understanding of its components relationship to individual areas of mathematics is somewhat restricted. This study aims to better understand this relationship. Two-hundred and fourteen year 3 children in the UK were administered tests of verbal and visuospatial…

Luona Wang; Qiaoping Zhang; Daner Sun – International Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2025
Augmented reality (AR) has the potential to enhance visual cognition through virtual object experimentation and practice, while also fostering spatial skills relevant to mathematics. This experimental study was conducted with 86 sixth graders in Eastern China, involving a 3-month AR integrated Mathematics Curriculum (ARiMC), with pre- and…
