Ruiz, Carola; Kohnen, Saskia; Bull, Rebecca – Journal of Numerical Cognition, 2023
There is ongoing debate regarding what performance on the number line estimation task represents and its role in mathematics learning. The patterns followed by children's estimates on the number line task could provide insight into this. This study investigates children's estimation patterns on the number line task and assesses whether mathematics…

Bull, Rebecca; Lee, Kerry; Muñez, David – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2021
Difficulties in mathematics are argued to stem from impairments of a specialized system of numerical magnitude representation. This study investigates whether different measures of numerical magnitude understanding in kindergarten uniquely predict mathematical achievement concurrently and 6 months later, and also examines the relative explanatory…

Bailey, Drew H.; Hansen, Nicole; Jordan, Nancy C. – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2017
The importance of fraction knowledge to later mathematics achievement, along with U.S. students' poor knowledge of fraction concepts and procedures, has prompted research on the development of fraction learning. In the present study, participants' (N = 536) development of fraction magnitude understanding and fraction arithmetic skills was assessed…
