18- Links Between Lab-Based Measures of Numerical Competence and TEMA scores

Monday, April 13, 2015: 5:45 PM-6:45 PM
Grand Ballroom C/D (Westin - Boston Waterfront)

 

Lead Speaker:
Hilary Barth


Description of Presentation:

Lab-based measures of numerical competence (e.g. number-line estimation) predict performance on formal math assessments. However, developmental psychologists debate the most common explanation of this link. We tested children on number line estimation, visual set comparison, and the TEMA to explore the sources of these links.
