DOI: 10.1016/j.jecp.2019.04.003
Abstract: The current study investigated how children's working memory updating processes influence arithmetic performance and strategy use. Large samples of third and fourth graders were asked to find estimates of two-digit addition problems (e.g., 42 + 76). On… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jecp.2019.06.004
Abstract: The current study examined the relations between 5- and 6-year-olds' understanding of ordinality and their mathematical competence. We focused specifically on "positional operations," a property of ordinality not contingent on magnitude, in an effort to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/17470218.2016.1246577
Abstract: Recent evidence has highlighted the important role that number-ordering skills play in arithmetic abilities, both in children and adults. In the current study, we demonstrated that number comparison and ordering skills were both significantly related… read more here.
