Fraction Knowledge in Adults with Persistent Mathematics Difficulties
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Parnika Bhatia; Jessica Léone; Marie-Line Gardes; Jérôme Prado – Learning Disability Quarterly, 2024
Fractions are challenging for both typically achieving children and adults. Although some prior research has focused on fraction difficulties of children with mathematics difficulties (MD), persistent difficulties encountered by adults with MD remain unknown. It is possible that these adults may be able to compensate for some deficits. In this…

Chen, Jinsong; Li, Liangfang; Zhang, Dake – Learning Disability Quarterly, 2021
This study analyzed the Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study 2011 data on fourth-grade U.S. students' mathematics performance to answer four research questions: (a) How did U.S. students' geometry performance compare with their performance on the other mathematics subscales? (b) What were the patterns of student achievement among…

Implicit Theories, Social Support, and Hope as Serial Mediators for Predicting Academic Self-Efficacy among Higher Education Students
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Mana, Adi; Saka, Noa; Dahan, Orit; Ben-Simon, Anat; Margalit, Malka – Learning Disability Quarterly, 2022
This study examined the predictive role of learning difficulties in the academic self-efficacy of students enrolled in higher education institutions and the serial multiple mediation of inner and external resources. The sample consisted of 2,113 students (age range = 18-35 years) at 25 higher education institutions in Israel. Participants were…

Executive Function and Planning Features of Students with Different Types of Learning Difficulties in Chinese Junior Middle School
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Deng, Meiqi; Cai, Dan; Zhou, Xuan; Leung, Ada W. S. – Learning Disability Quarterly, 2022
The aim of the present study was to investigate the executive function and planning features of students with different types of learning difficulties. Students with mathematics difficulty (MD; n = 17), reading difficulty (RD; n = 12), and their commonalities (MDRD; n = 22), along with typically academically developing peers (TD; n = 22), were…

The Deficit Profile of Elementary Students with Computational Difficulties versus Word Problem-Solving Difficulties
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Lin, Xin; Peng, Peng; Luo, Hongjing – Learning Disability Quarterly, 2021
The purpose of the study was to compare the deficit profiles of two important types of mathematics difficulties. Three cognitive measures (working memory, processing speed, and reasoning), two mathematics measures (numerical facts retrieval and mathematics vocabulary), and reading comprehension were assessed among 237 Chinese fourth-grade…

Multiple Goals Perspective in Adolescent Students with Learning Difficulties
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Nunez, Jose Carlos; Gonzalez-Pienda, Julio Antonio; Rodriguez, Celestino; Valle, Antonio; Gonzalez-Cabanach, Ramon; Rosario, Pedro – Learning Disability Quarterly, 2011
In the present work, the hypothesis of the existence of diverse motivational profiles in students with learning difficulties (LD) and the differential implications for intervention in the classroom are analyzed. Various assessment scales (academic goals, self-concept, and causal attributions) were administered to a sample of 259 students with LD,…
