Fincham, Emmanuelle N. – Global Studies of Childhood, 2022
Mainstream images of "toddler" tend to serve a humorous purpose in mass media, most often presenting children of this age (18 months-3 years) as out-of-control.

DePascale, Mary; Butler, Lucas Payne; Ramani, Geetha B. – Journal of Numerical Cognition, 2023
From a young age, children's math achievement is influenced by individual factors, such as math anxiety.
