Tzu-Hsing Lin; Paul J. Riccomini; Zhigao Liang – Learning Disability Quarterly, 2025
This study reviews the literature on error patterns in mathematics among students with mathematics difficulty. We analyzed and synthesized the findings from 17 studies, focusing on the characteristics of error analysis studies, the mathematics topics examined, and the specific error patterns identified. The results revealed the following: (a) the…

Martin, BrittanyLee N.; Fuchs, Lynn S. – Learning Disability Quarterly, 2019
The purpose of this study was to explore interactions between limited English proficiency (LEP) status, as a function of risk status (low math performance at the start of the school year), on computation and word-problem-solving performance. Among 260 first-grade students, classified as at-risk (AR) or not-at-risk (NAR) for math disability, we…

Bundock, Kaitlin; Hawken, Leanne S.; Kiuhara, Sharlene A.; O'Keeffe, Breda V.; O'Neill, Robert E.; Cummings, Margarita B. – Learning Disability Quarterly, 2021
Implementing an integrated sequence of concrete-representational-abstract depictions of mathematics concepts (CRA-I) can improve the mathematics achievement of students with disabilities, and explicit instructional strategies involving problem-solving heuristics and student verbalizations can help facilitate students' conceptual understanding of…

Goldman, Susan R. – Learning Disability Quarterly, 1989
Experiments in strategy instruction for mathematics have been conducted using three models (direct instruction, self-instruction, and guided learning) applied to the tasks of computation and word problem solving. Results have implications for effective strategy instruction for learning disabled students. It is recommended that strategy instruction…

Zentall, Sydney S.; Ferkis, Mary Ann – Learning Disability Quarterly, 1993
This review of research finds that, when IQ and reading ability are controlled, "true" math deficits of students with learning disabilities, attention deficit disorders, and attention deficit hyperactive disorders (ADHD) are specific to mathematical concepts and problem types. Slow computation affects problem solving by increasing attentional…
