Direct linkLeib, Elena R.; Starr, Ariel; Younger, Jessica Wise; Bunge, Silvia A.; Uncapher, Melina R.; Rosenberg-Lee, Miriam – Developmental Psychology, 2023
The present study tests two predictions stemming from the hypothesis that a source of difficulty with rational numbers is interference from whole number magnitude knowledge. First, inhibitory control should be an independent predictor of fraction understanding, even after controlling for working memory. Second, if the source of interference is…

Laski, Elida V.; Dulaney, Alana – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2015
The present study tested the "interference hypothesis"-that learning and using more advanced representations and strategies requires the inhibition of prior, less advanced ones. Specifically, it examined the relation between inhibitory control and number line estimation performance. Experiment 1 compared the accuracy of adults' (N = 53)…

Peer reviewedGirelli, Luisa; Lucangeli, Daniela; Butterworth, Brian – Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 2000
Traced developmental changes in automatic and intentional processing of Arabic numerals using numerical-Stroop paradigm in two studies. In numerical comparison task, found that congruent physical sizes facilitated and incongruent sizes interfered with numerical comparison at all ages relative to neutral control. In physical comparison task, found…
