Behavioral Executive Functions among Adolescents with Mathematics Difficulties
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Holm, Marja E.; Aunio, Pirjo; Björn, Piia M.; Klenberg, Liisa; Korhonen, Johan; Hannula, Markku S. – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 2018
This study investigates behavioral executive functions (EFs) in the mathematics classroom context among adolescents with different mathematics performance levels. The EF problems were assessed by teachers using a behavioral rating inventory. Using cutoff scores on a standardized mathematics assessment, groups with mathematics difficulties (MD; n =…

Morgan, Paul L.; Farkas, George; Hillemeier, Marianne M.; Maczuga, Steve – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 2016
We analyzed two nationally representative, longitudinal data sets of U.S. children to identify risk factors for persistent mathematics difficulties (PMD). Results indicated that children from low socioeconomic households are at elevated risk of PMD at 48 and 60 months of age, as are children with cognitive delays, identified developmental delays…

Jitendra, Asha K.; Harwell, Michael R.; Dupuis, Danielle N.; Karl, Stacy R. – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 2017
This article reports results from a study investigating the efficacy of a proportional problem-solving intervention, schema-based instruction (SBI), in seventh grade. Participants included 806 students with mathematical difficulties in problem solving (MD-PS) from an initial pool of 1,999 seventh grade students in a larger study. Teachers and…

Building Knowledge Structures by Testing Helps Children with Mathematical Learning Difficulty
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Zhang, Yiyun; Zhou, Xinlin – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 2016
Mathematical learning difficulty (MLD) is prevalent in the development of mathematical abilities. Previous interventions for children with MLD have focused on number sense or basic mathematical skills. This study investigated whether mathematical performance of fifth grade children with MLD could be improved by developing knowledge structures by…

Performance of Children with Developmental Dyslexia on Two Skill Learning Tasks--Serial Reaction Time and Tower of Hanoi Puzzle
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Vakil, Eli; Lowe, Michal; Goldfus, Carol – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 2015
Among the various theories proposed to explain developmental dyslexia (DD), the theory of specific procedural learning difficulties has gained certain support and is the framework for the current research. This theory claims that an inability to achieve skill automaticity explains the difficulties experienced by individuals with DD. Previous…

Testing Accommodation or Modification?: The Effects of Integrated Object Representation on Enhancing Geometry Performance in Children with and without Geometry Difficulties
Direct linkDirect link
Zhang, Dake; Wang, Qiu; Ding, Yi; Liu, Jeremy Jian – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 2014
According to the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics, geometry and spatial sense are fundamental components of mathematics learning. However, learning disabilities (LD) research has shown that many K-12 students encounter particular geometry difficulties (GD). This study examined the effect of an integrated object representation (IOR)…
