Previous research has demonstrated a link between children's ability to name canonical finger configurations and their mathematical abilities. This study aimed to investigate the nature of this association, specifically exploring whether the relationship is skill and handshape specific and identifying the underlying mechanisms involved.…

Urban-Rural Differences in Early Arithmetic Performance Are Accounted for by Phonological Processing
Wei Wei; Junyi Dai; Chuansheng Chen; Yingge Huang; Xinlin Zhou – Journal of Cognition and Development, 2024
Urban and rural children have different levels of performance in arithmetic processing. This study investigated whether such a residence difference can be explained by phonological processing. A total of 1,501 Chinese primary school students from urban and rural areas were recruited to complete nine cognitive tasks: two in arithmetic performance…

Prather, Richard; Alibali, Martha W. – Journal of Cognition and Development, 2011
The current study investigated how young learners' experiences with arithmetic equations can lead to learning of an arithmetic principle. The focus was elementary school children's acquisition of the Relation to Operands principle for subtraction (i.e., for natural numbers, the difference must be less than the minuend). In Experiment 1, children…
