Mathematical cognition in intellectually precocious first graders.
Forty-six intellectually precocious (M age = 74 months) and 250 intellectually typical (M age = 75 months) children were administered a standardized working memory battery, speed of processing measures, and tasks that assessed skill at number line estimation and strategies used to solve simple and complex addition problems. Precocious children had an advantage over same-age peers for all compon...
متن کاملTracking Intellectually Precocious Youth Over 25 Years
A sample of 2,409 intellectually talented adolescents (top 1%) who were assessed on the SAT by age 13 was tracked longitudinally for more than 25 years. Their creative accomplishments, with particular emphasis on literary achievement and scientific-technical innovation, were examined as a function of ability level (sum of math and verbal SAT scores) and tilt (math SAT score minus verbal SAT sco...
متن کاملPrecocious quantitative cognition in monkeys.
Basic quantitative abilities are thought to have an innate basis in humans partly because the ability to discriminate quantities emerges early in child development. If humans and nonhuman primates share this developmentally primitive foundation of quantitative reasoning, then this ability should be present early in development across species and should emerge earlier in monkeys than in humans b...
متن کاملDefective number module or impaired access? Numerical magnitude processing in first graders with mathematical difficulties.
This study examined numerical magnitude processing in first graders with severe and mild forms of mathematical difficulties, children with mathematics learning disabilities (MLD) and children with low achievement (LA) in mathematics, respectively. In total, 20 children with MLD, 21 children with LA, and 41 regular achievers completed a numerical magnitude comparison task and an approximate addi...
متن کاملMathematical Cognition
Mathematics is a system for representing and reasoning about quantities, with arithmetic as its foundation. Its deep interest for our understanding of the psychological foundations of scientific thought comes from what Eugene Wigner called the unreasonable efficacy of mathematics in the natural sciences. From a formalist perspective, arithmetic is a symbolic game, like tic-tac-toe. Its rules ar...
