Orrantia, Josetxu; Muñez, David; Matilla, Laura; Sanchez, Rosario; San Romualdo, Sara; Verschaffel, Lieven – Cognitive Science, 2019
A growing body of research has shown that symbolic number processing relates to individual differences in mathematics. However, it remains unclear which mechanisms of symbolic number processing are crucial--accessing underlying magnitude representation of symbols (i.e., symbol-magnitude associations), processing relative order of symbols (i.e.,…

Nurit Paz-Baruch – Educational Studies, 2024
The study identified the cognitive mechanisms that underly individual differences in mathematics and reading. There is little systematic evidence regarding the connections between cognitive capabilities, mathematics and reading among high-school students with typical development. Moreover, the study aimed to examine whether or not gender is…

Taajah Witherspoon; Cora Causey – Excellence in Education Journal, 2024
Mathematics is one of the universal subjects taught in schools across the globe. Knowledge, understanding, and application of mathematics are essential for all members of society to fully participate without restrictions in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) careers (Gulnaz & Fatima, 2019). Although universal and…

Simsek, Zulfiye Zeybek – International Journal for Mathematics Teaching and Learning, 2020
This study focused on investigating the ability of 58 pre-service mathematics teachers (PSMTs) to construct-evaluate-refine mathematical conjectures and proofs. The PSMTs enrolled in a three-credit mathematics education course that offered various opportunities to engage with mathematical activities including constructing-evaluating-refining…

Majerus, Steve; Oberauer, Klaus – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2020
The processing of ordinally organized information is a characteristic of both serial-order working memory and numerical cognition. Serial positions of items presented within a list follow an ordinal organization when stored in working memory, whereas numbers are based on an ordinal structure stored in long-term memory. We tested the hypothesis…

Juanchich, Marie; Sirota, Miroslav – Applied Cognitive Psychology, 2020
Family physicians can communicate to patients the risk of adverse drug reactions using words or numbers, and this format has important implications for patients' ability to make informed decisions. The present study (a) assessed which formats family physicians preferred to communicate the risk of a given side effect, (b) tested whether the…

Sprenger, Priska; Benz, Christiane – ZDM: The International Journal on Mathematics Education, 2020
The ability to perceive structures in sets and to use them to determine cardinality is one important basis for arithmetical learning. This study is based on a theoretical model that distinguishes between the two processes of perception and determination. A total of 95 5-year-old children were interviewed individually to find out whether and how…

Askew, Mike; Venkat, Hamsa – ZDM: The International Journal on Mathematics Education, 2020
The cardinal and ordinal aspects of number have been widely written about as key constructs that need to be brought together in children's understanding in order for them to appreciate the idea of numerosity. In this paper, we discuss similarities and differences in the ways in which understandings not only of ordinality, cardinality but also…

Lopac, Vjera; Hrupec, Dario – Physics Teacher, 2020
On November 16, 2018, at the 26th meeting of the General Conference on Weights and Measures (CGPM), a resolution was adopted that introduced historical changes into the International System of Units (SI). This decision, effective from May 20, 2019, established that the SI units of measurement will be defined by means of a set of seven fixed…

Alees Teel Lee – ProQuest LLC, 2020
Exponential functions are an integral component of the secondary mathematics curriculum with which students struggle. Inherent difficulties students have had around the topic of exponential functions suggested a need for thinking about and examining the teaching and learning related to this content. This study presented the mathematical ideas made…

Bundock, Kaitlin; Shumway, Jessica F.; Burnside, Monika; King, Jessica – International Journal of Education in Mathematics, Science and Technology, 2023
A critical challenge for elementary mathematics teachers is meeting the learning needs of all students, especially when there is variability in students' number knowledge. Because young students' number system knowledge (NSK) contributes to future success in mathematics, NSK activities must be designed to engage all students, particularly students…

Xu, Chang; LeFevre, Jo-Anne; Di Lonardo Burr, Sabrina; Maloney, Erin A.; Wylie, Judith; Simms, Victoria; Skwarchuk, Sheri-Lynn; Osana, Helena P. – Journal of Numerical Cognition, 2023
Children's knowledge of the ordinal relations among number symbols is related to their mathematical learning. Ordinal knowledge has been measured using judgment (i.e., decide whether a sequence of three digits is in order) and ordering tasks (i.e., order three digits from smallest to largest). However, the question remains whether performance on…
