Rudziewicz, Michael; Bossé, Michael J.; Marland, Eric S.; Rhoads, Gregory S. – International Journal for Mathematics Teaching and Learning, 2017
Humans possess a remarkable ability to recognise both simple patterns such as shapes and handwriting and very complex patterns such as faces and landscapes. To investigate one small aspect of human pattern recognition, in this study participants position lines of "best fit" to two-dimensional scatter plots of data. The study investigates…

Bianchi, Ivana; Savardi, Ugo – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2012
Research on naive physics and naive optics have shown that people hold surprising beliefs about everyday phenomena that are in contrast with what they see. In this article, we investigated what adults expect to be the field of view of a mirror from various viewpoints. The studies presented here confirm that humans have difficulty dealing with the…

Bell, Carol J. – Mathematics Teaching in the Middle School, 2011
Most future teachers are familiar with number patterns that represent an arithmetic sequence, and most are able to determine the general representation of the "n"th number in the pattern. However, when they are given a visual representation instead of the numbers in the pattern, it is not always easy for them to make the connection between the…
