Bonato, Mario; Fabbri, Sara; Umilta, Carlo; Zorzi, Marco – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2007
Numerical fractions are commonly used to express ratios and proportions (i.e., real numbers), but little is known about how they are mentally represented and processed by skilled adults. Four experiments employed comparison tasks to investigate the distance effect and the effect of the spatial numerical association of response codes (SNARC) for…

Hannula, Minna M.; Rasanen, Pekka; Lehtinen, Erno – Mathematical Thinking & Learning: An International Journal, 2007
Children differ in how much they spontaneously pay attention to quantitative aspects of their natural environment. We studied how this spontaneous tendency to focus on numerosity (SFON) is related to subitizing-based enumeration and verbal and object counting skills. In this exploratory study, children were tested individually at the age of 4-5…

Peer reviewedPerkins, Victoria; Cullinan, Douglas – Education and Treatment of Children, 1985
Three elementary-school students were exposed to Fractions 1, an instructional program for fraction problem-solving skills based on "direct instruction" principles. Fraction performance increases could reasonably be attributed to the instructional program. Improvements were durable across a short follow-up period and transfer occurred to similiar…

Sfard, Anna; Lavie, Irit – Cognition and Instruction, 2005
Based on close observations of two 4-year-old children responding to their parents' requests for quantitative comparisons, we offer a "participationist" account of the origins and development of numerical thinking, one that portrays numbers as a product rather than a pregiven object of human communication. In parallel, we propose a…

Cheng-Zijuan; Chan, Lorna Kim Sang – International Journal of Early Years Education, 2005
Simplicity in number naming in a language (e.g. "ten-two" in Chinese is simpler than the irregular "twelve" in English) has been used to explain cross-cultural disparities in children's computational competence. In contrast to previous research focusing only on whether children can provide the correct answers, in this study (N =117 and 92) we…
