Numerical Cognition: On the Convergence of Componential and Psychometric Models.

Geary, David C.; Widaman, Keith F.

Intelligence, v16 n1 p47-80 Jan-Mar 1992

The relationship between elementary operations underlying processing of numerical information and performance on psychometrically derived ability measures requiring processing of numbers but defining separate ability factors was studied for 102 Air Force recruits (54 males and 48 females). Patterns of convergent and discriminate relationships for individual ability differences are discussed. (SLD)
