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…

Allwood, Carl Martin – Cognitive Science: A Multidisciplinary Journal of Artificial Intelligence, Psychology and Language, 1984
Describes a study which analyzed problem solvers' error detection processes by instructing subjects to think aloud when solving statistical problems. Effects of evaluative episodes on error detection, detection of different error types, error detection processes per se, and relationship of error detection behavior to problem-solving proficiency…

Sandberg, J. A. C.; DeRuiter, H. – Instructional Science, 1985
Presents five simulation models reflecting sequential levels of children's simple arithmetic story problem solving skills. Outputs of the models are compared with data obtained by presenting 60 five- to eight-year-olds with change problems to examine models' deterministic nature. Results indicate the models give an adequate description of behavior…
