Sofia Tancredi – Digital Experiences in Mathematics Education, 2024
Can math concepts be experienced through the sensory modality of balance? Balance Board Math (BBM) is a set of pedagogical math activities designed to instantiate mathematical concepts through stimulation to the vestibular sense: an organ in the inner ear that detects our bodily balance and orientation. BBM establishes the different ways children…

Petersson, Jöran; Sayers, Judy; Rosenqvist, Eva; Andrews, Paul – Oxford Review of Education, 2023
In this paper we present analyses of three textbooks currently used in the teaching of mathematics to year-one children in England. One is an established English-authored textbook, while the others are Singaporean-authored imports promoted by government as solutions to perceptions of systemic failure. Every task in each textbook was coded against…

Jeglinski-Mende, Melinda A.; Fischer, Martin H.; Miklashevsky, Alex – Journal of Numerical Cognition, 2023
While some researchers place negative numbers on a so-called extended mental number line to the left of positive numbers, others claim that negative numbers do not have mental representations but are processed through positive numbers combined with transformation rules. We measured spatial associations of negative numbers with a modified implicit…

Christou, Konstantinos P.; Vamvakoussi, Xenia – Mathematics Education Research Journal, 2023
Over the last years, there is a growing interest in studying students' difficulties with rational numbers from a cognitive/developmental perspective, focusing on the role of prior knowledge in students' understanding of rational numbers. The present study tests the effect of the "whole" or "natural number bias" (i.e., the…

Mou, Yi; Zhang, Bo; Hyde, Daniel C. – Child Development, 2023
A fundamental question in numerical development concerns the directional relation between an early-emerging non-verbal approximate number system (ANS) and culturally acquired verbal number and mathematics knowledge. Using path models on longitudinal data collected in preschool children (M[subscript age] = 3.86 years; N = 216; 99 males; 80.8%…

O'Rear, Connor D.; Zippert, Erica L.; Ehrman, Patrick; Westerberg, Lauren; Lonigan, Christopher J.; Purpura, David J. – Infant and Child Development, 2023
In two studies, we investigated whether using three-dimensional (3D) manipulatives during assessment aided performance on a variety of preschool mathematics tasks compared to pictorial representations. On measures of children's understanding of counting and cardinality (n = 103), there was no difference in performance between manipulatives and…

Viktorsson, Charlotte; Lindskog, Marcus; Li, Danyang; Tammimies, Kristiina; Taylor, Mark J.; Ronald, Angelica; Falck-Ytter, Terje – Developmental Science, 2023
The ability to perceive approximate numerosity is present in many animal species, and emerges early in human infants. Later in life, it is moderately heritable and associated with mathematical abilities, but the etiology of the Approximate Number System (ANS) and its degree of independence from other cognitive abilities in infancy is unknown.…

Ruiz, Carola; Kohnen, Saskia; Bull, Rebecca – Journal of Numerical Cognition, 2023
There is ongoing debate regarding what performance on the number line estimation task represents and its role in mathematics learning. The patterns followed by children's estimates on the number line task could provide insight into this. This study investigates children's estimation patterns on the number line task and assesses whether mathematics…

Taylor Lesner; Marah Sutherland; Madison Cook; Emily Wilke; Keith Smolkowski; Ben Clarke – Learning Disabilities Research & Practice, 2025
Understanding numerical magnitude is critical to the development of mathematics proficiency. Math interventions targeting magnitude knowledge have been shown to improve outcomes for students with math learning difficulties across grade levels. However, while recent studies have found that growth in magnitude knowledge mediates fractions…

Gena Nelson; Eunji Kong; Sarah Quinn; Derek Kosty; Emily J. Wilke; Ben Clarke – Learning Disabilities Research & Practice, 2025
This scoping review describes mathematics intervention studies that include initial skill moderation analyses. Sixteen studies were included that focused on students with or at risk for mathematics difficulties (MD). The results revealed that mathematics intervention studies with initial skill moderation analyses focused on students in…

Harkness, Shelly Sheats; Brass, Amy – School Science and Mathematics, 2022
Understanding large number data is essential for making sense of real-world problems. For the research reported here, our intent was to find connections between quantitative cognitive science studies and our prior qualitative study about participants' understanding of the relative size of large numbers. While all 23 cognitive science research…

Schneider, Rose M.; Sullivan, Jessica; Guo, Kaiqi; Barner, David – Child Development, 2021
Although many U.S. children can count sets by 4 years, it is not until 5½--6 years that they understand how counting relates to number--that is, that adding 1 to a set necessitates counting up one number. This study examined two knowledge sources that 3½- to 6-year-olds (N = 136) may leverage to acquire this "successor function": (a)…

de Hevia, Maria Dolores – Child Development Perspectives, 2021
The propensity to use a spatial framework to organize other pieces of information is a widespread phenomenon that permeates humans' representation of diverse concepts, including numerical quantities. Developmental studies on numerical cognition have revealed that humans possess a system for abstract quantity representation that is functional at…

Patrick K. Kirkland; Ying Cheng; Nicole M. McNeil – Journal for Research in Mathematics Education, 2024
This Brief Report presents an example of assessment validation using an argument-based approach. The instrument we developed is a Brief Assessment of Students' Mature Number Sense, which measures a central goal in mathematics education. We chose to develop this assessment to provide an efficient way to measure the effect of instructional practices…
