Kaëlig Raspail; Valérie Pennequin – American Journal on Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities, 2025
The aim of this study was to explore the relationship between the three main executive functions (i.e., inhibition, working memory, and flexibility) and three steps of social information processing model (SIP; Crick & Dodge, 1994). Participants were 42 young people (13 years old 5 months, SD = 28 months) with mild level of intellectual…

Hord, Casey; DeJarnette, Anna F.; McMillan, Leah A.; Baldrick, Paige – Support for Learning, 2020
The authors of this study conducted an exploratory study of the teaching and learning processes of a tutor and a student with a mild intellectual disability (MID) while working on two-step equations. The researchers focused on situations in which the participant was likely to struggle with memory and processing as well as the challenges of the…

Sarah Schulze; Jan Kuhl – Learning Disabilities: A Contemporary Journal, 2024
This study examines the effects of a working memory (WM) sensitive math intervention in students with learning disabilities (LD). The intervention aims to improve early mathematical competencies while accounting for weak cognitive resources through a reduced instructional design. These principles are considered to be effective for learning. Ten…

Fusinska-Korpik, Agnieszka; Gacek, Michal – Journal of Intellectual & Developmental Disability, 2022
Background: In this study we aimed to explore how intelligence and executive functioning are related to decision-making regarding social situations in persons with mild ID. Method: We studied 80 vocational school students with mild ID; the controls were 80 students of a similar age. We assessed decision-making ability with the Important Life…

Stefanelli, Silvia; Alloway, Tracy Packiam – Journal of Intellectual Disabilities, 2020
Borderline intellectual functioning is a neurodevelopmental condition characterized by an intelligence quotient (IQ) in the range of 70-85. The present study aimed to investigate the mathematical abilities and the working memory of students with borderline intellectual functioning (BIF). The sample group included 10 year-old students with BIF (n =…

Soltani, Amanallah; Mirhosseini, Sanaz – International Journal of Disability, Development and Education, 2020
General cognitive and specific number abilities that underlay arithmetic performance have been heavily investigated among typically developing students; however, the inquiry has rarely been applied to students with mild intellectual disability (MID). We examined whether domain-general cognitive abilities (i.e. working memory, processing speed, and…

Hord, Casey; Duppstadt, Marissa; Marita, Samantha; Pescatrice, Stephanie – Journal of Intellectual Disabilities, 2021
In the United States, students with mild intellectual disability (MID) are expected to access the general education curriculum and some of these students are required to pass the same high-stakes exams as students without disabilities. Research supports that students with MID can demonstrate success with mathematics after receiving interventions…

van Duijvenbode, Neomi; Didden, Robert; Korzilius, Hubert P. L. M.; Engels, Rutger C. M. E. – Journal of Applied Research in Intellectual Disabilities, 2017
Background: Problematic alcohol use is associated with neuropsychological consequences, including cognitive biases. The goal of the study was to explore the moderating role of executive control and readiness to change on the relationship between alcohol use and cognitive biases in light and problematic drinkers with and without mild to borderline…
