Wright, Jone Perryman – 1968
The purpose of this study was to determine if children's performance in solving verbally stated arithmetic problems varied when word clues were included or omitted. The sample consisted of 382 fifth-grade children enrolled in four schools of one school system. Twelve sets of problems were so constructed that each set contained two similar problem…

Binkley, Ed – 1967
The effects of age, readiness, sex, and race variables in first grade on the later reading, spelling, and arithmetic achievement and on the personal, social, and total adjustment of 1,110 culturally deprived fourth-grade pupils were studied. Readiness levels were determined by the Metropolitan Readiness Test; achievement areas were measured by the…

A Study of the Teaching of Non-Decimal Systems of Numeration in the Elementary School, Final Report.
Kavett, Phyllis F. – 1969
This is a report of an experiment performed to evaluate the effects of the teaching of non-decimal numeration systems in grades four and six. Eighteen classes consisting of 430 students comprised the sample. The students were divided into four randomly assigned treatment groups for each level. Tests were given before a teaching session of five to…

Anttonon, Ralph George – 1967
Developed was a principal component factor scoring technique for an instrument devised by Cyril J. Hoyt to measure mathematics attitude. The instrument was administered in 1960 to students (607) in the fifth and sixth grade, and again in 1966 to those in the eleventh and twelfth grade. Scores were examined for consistency in attitude and for…

Shulte, Albert Philip – 1967
A unit on probability and statistics was introduced into 18 ninth-grade general mathematics classes. The effects of this unit on teacher attitude, student attitude, and student achievement in several selected mathematical areas were investigated. The experimental group of 18 classes and a comparison group of 17 classes were tested before and after…

Peck, Lyman C. – 1961
This pamphlet is designed for use as enrichment material for able junior and senior high school students who are interested in mathematics. No more than a clear understanding of basic arithmetic is expected. Students are introduced to ideas from number theory and modern algebra by learning mathematical ways of coding and decoding secret messages.…
