Strohmaier, Anselm R.; Reinhold, Frank; Hofer, Sarah; Berkowitz, Michal; Vogel-Heuser, Birgit; Reiss, Kristina – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 2022
Mathematical word problem solving is influenced by various characteristics of the task and the person solving it. Yet, previous research has rarely related these characteristics to holistically answer which word problem requires which set of individual cognitive skills. In the present study, we conducted a secondary data analysis on a dataset of N…

Strohmaier, Anselm Robert; Schiepe-Tiska, Anja; Müller, Fabian; Reiss, Kristina M. – AERA Online Paper Repository, 2017
Self-concept is an important noncognitive predictor of learning success and academic achievement, but mechanisms behind these effects are mostly unknown (Marsh, 2006). We analyzed the influence of mathematical self-concept on university students' eye movements in reading mathematical PISA items in a mathematical and a problem-solving context. In a…
