Alsina, Angel; Maurandi, Antonio; Ferre, Elvira; Coronata, Claudia – International Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2021
The aim of this study is to validate an instrument to evaluate the teaching of mathematics through mathematical processes using a structural equation model. To that end, we have administered the instrument to 95 in-service Spanish teachers and we have also analysed the presence of mathematical processes (problem solving, reasoning and proof,…

Goldhammer, Frank; Martens, Thomas; Christoph, Gabriela; Lüdtke, Oliver – OECD Publishing, 2016
In this study, we investigated how empirical indicators of test-taking engagement can be defined, empirically validated, and used to describe group differences in the context of the Programme of International Assessment of Adult Competences (PIAAC). The approach was to distinguish between disengaged and engaged response behavior by means of…

Llinares, Salvador; Clemente, Francisco – Mathematical Thinking and Learning: An International Journal, 2014
The goal of this study is to identify the characteristics of pre-service primary teachers' configural reasoning, understood as the relationships between concepts and figures set to solve geometrical proof problems. Ninety-seven primary teachers were asked to solve two geometrical proof problems in which a geometrical figure was provided. The…

Agus, Mirian; Penna, Maria Pietronilla; Peró-Cebollero, Maribel; Guàrdia-Olmos, Joan – EURASIA Journal of Mathematics, Science & Technology Education, 2016
Research on the graphical facilitation of probabilistic reasoning has been characterised by the effort expended to identify valid assessment tools. The authors developed an assessment instrument to compare reasoning performances when problems were presented in verbal-numerical and graphical-pictorial formats. A sample of undergraduate psychology…

Yubero, Santiago; Navarro, Raul – School Psychology International, 2006
This article enquires into the role of gender in the use of different forms of aggression and in the appearance of conflicts within the interactions between students of 12-17 years of age. In order to understand both aspects, the conversational fragments of students and teachers from two high schools are expounded; discourses obtained using a…
