The Ultimatum Game is a two-person, multiple-strategy game widely used in the experimental social sciences to demonstrate the human propensity for costly punishment in response to inequitable treatment. The game serves to provide quantitative evidence for a diversity of fairness norms across cultures. The play of the game and its interpretation…

The present research aimed to reveal how the COVID-19 pandemic influenced the mathematical reasoning of primary school students through mediation analysis. It was designed as ex post facto research. The research sample consisted of two cohorts. Cohort 1 included 415 primary school children who received face-to-face instruction by attending school…

This study aims to examine the effect of the "Number and Operation Training Program" on early mathematics ability and mother-child relationship at home. In an experimental design, pre-test, post-test, permanence test were used with control groups. A total of 21 children and their mothers participated in the research; consisting of 13…

Several factors seem important to understand the nature of mathematical learning. Byrnes and Miller combined these factors into the Opportunity-Propensity model. In this study the model was used to predict the number-processing factor and the arithmetic fluency in grade 4 (n = 195) and grade 5 (n = 213). Gender, intelligence and affect (positive…

Decades of research suggest that both Head Start and public pre-kindergarten (pre-k) programs boost low-income preschoolers' kindergarten skills. What is not yet well understood is whether there are relative advantages of transitioning from Head Start after 1 year into a school-based public pre-k program for the year immediately before…

Infants and toddlers spend a substantial amount of their time in out-of-home care, and are thus being tended to not only by their mothers but also by their caregivers. It is therefore of considerable importance to study the effects of caregiver-infant compared to mother-infant interactions. To address this issue, first, various variables of…

The present article provides educators of students with emotional and behavioral disorders with information on how to develop students' math-related self-monitoring skills. A rationale for fostering self-monitoring skills in math is followed by steps and helpful hints on how best to plan, implement, and evaluate a self-monitoring intervention…

Rational number knowledge is a crucial feature of primary school mathematics that predicts students' later mathematics achievement. Many students struggle with the transition from natural number to rational number reasoning, so novel pedagogical approaches to support the development of rational number knowledge are valuable to mathematics…

Feedback is an essential form of communication between the student and teacher. Research has documented the importance of feedback in advancing student mathematical and critical thinking, with renewed recommendations to provide and use feedback in mathematical instruction during the era of COVID-19. Giving personalized feedback in an online…

Over half a century has passed since Bruner suggested his three-stage enactive-iconic-symbolic model of instruction. In more recent research, predominantly in educational psychology, Bruner's model has been reformulated into the theory of instruction known as concreteness fading (CF). In a recent constructivist teaching experiment investigating…

This study aims to obtain a picture of the perception of mathematics teachers related to students' mathematical problem-solving abilities. This research method is qualitative research with a case study approach. The subject of this research is a mathematics teacher in Sumatra. A total of 32 mathematics teachers were involved in this study. The…

Making accurate judgements and interpretations about student growth and progress in mathematics can be problematic when using open-ended assessments. This study reports on the development of a class-based assessment instrument and marking key designed to assess Year 2 students' mathematics competence to reflect their learning of mathematics…

The use of manipulatives to develop conceptual understanding appears to be a prevalent practice in many mathematical learning experiences, particularly in the early years of schooling. This study evaluates the impact of mathematical manipulatives on young children's attitudes towards mathematics (YCATM). The modified three-dimensional model of…

This study aims to determine the knowledge levels of primary school, mathematics, special education, and Psychological Counseling & Guidance (PCG) teachers on Dyscalculia. A descriptive survey model was used for the research. Four hundred eighty-nine teachers were selected for the study, including 254 primary school teachers, 130 high school…

There exist many studies on modeling competencies and their promotion; however, there is a need to investigate what modeling competencies are and how they vary in lower and higher-achieving groups of students in mathematics within the current modeling literature domain. This study examined how mathematical modeling competencies were displayed in…
