Direct linkWijns, Nore; Verschaffel, Lieven; De Smedt, Bert; Torbeyns, Joke – Child Development, 2021
The present study aimed to analyze the direction of the associations between repeating patterning, growing patterning, and numerical ability. Participants were 410 children who were annually assessed on their repeating patterning, growing patterning, and numerical ability, at ages 4, 5, and 6 years (i.e., spring 2017, 2018, and 2019). A…
