Measuring Mathematical Aptitude in Exploratory Computer Environments.
Kajander, Ann
Roeper Review, v12 n4 p254-56 Jun 1990
This article compares measures of abstract thinking preference and divergent thinking to standard mathematics ability measures such as the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT). In this study involving gifted tenth graders, mathematical creativity was found to be a special kind of creativity not necessarily related to divergent thinking ability. (PB)
