Haghverdi, Majid; Wiest, Lynda R. – Mathematics Educator, 2016
This study shows how separate and combined contextual and conceptual problem rewording can positively influence student performance in solving mathematical word problems. Participants included 80 seventh-grade Iranian students randomly assigned in groups of 20 to three experimental groups involving three types of rewording and a control group. All…

Knowles, Martin E.; Delaney, Peter F. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2005
The authors present 3 experiments demonstrating ways to reduce illegal moves in problem-solving tasks. They propose a 3-stage framework for the rejection of illegal moves. An illegal move must come to mind and be selected, checked for legality, and correctly rejected. Illegal move reduction can occur at any stage. Control group participants…
