Kallai, Arava Y.; Tzelgov, Joseph – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2014
Common fractions have been found to be processed intentionally but not automatically, which led to the conclusion that they are not represented holistically in long-term memory. However, decimals are more similar to natural numbers in their form and thus might be better candidates to be holistically represented by educated adults. To test this…

Identifying Strategies in Arithmetic with the Operand Recognition Paradigm: A Matter of Switch Cost?
Thevenot, Catherine; Castel, Caroline; Danjon, Juliette; Fayol, Michel – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2015
Determining adults' and children's strategies in mental arithmetic constitutes a central issue in the domain of numerical cognition. However, despite the considerable amount of research on this topic, the conclusions in the literature are not always coherent. Therefore, there is a need to carry on the investigation, and this is the reason why we…

Xu, Chang; Wells, Emma; LeFevre, Jo-Anne; Imbo, Ineke – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2014
The purpose of the present study was to examine factors that influence strategic flexibility in computational estimation for Chinese- and Canadian-educated adults. Strategic flexibility was operationalized as the percentage of trials on which participants chose the problem-based procedure that best balanced proximity to the correct answer with…

Campbell, Jamie I. D.; Parker, Helen R.; Doetzel, Nicole L. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2004
In Experiment 1, adults (n = 48) performed simple addition, multiplication, and parity (i.e., odd-even) comparisons on pairs of Arabic digits or English number words. For addition and comparison, but not multiplication, response time increased with the number of odd operands. For addition, but not comparison, this parity effect was greater for…

Oberauer, Klaus – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2005
Two experiments investigated whether young and old adults can temporarily remove information from a capacity-limited central component of working memory (WM) into another component, the activated part of long-term memory (LTM). Experiment 1 used a modified Sternberg recognition task (S. Sternberg, 1969); Experiment 2 used an arithmetic…
