The Effects of Perceptual Transformation Experiences and Numerical Operational Experiences on Numerical Correspondence and Equivalence

Becher, Rhoda McShane

Journal for Research in Mathematics Education, 9, 1, 69-74, Jan 78

The perceptual transformation approach was found to be more effective in facilitating the acquisition of conservation subskills than the numerical operational approach. Neither approach was effective in facilitating the acquisition of conservation of number by nonconserving 4- and 5-year old children of lower socioeconomic status. (MN)
