The Psychology of Mathematical Ability
The Mathematical Gazette, 1928Both terms in the title of this paper are probably suspect. The mathematician, versed in a subject with hundreds of years of noble tradition, tends to be suspicious of a paper on psychology; the teacher of mathematics, immersed daily in psychological relationships with ordinary children, tends to be suspicious of a paper on mathematical ability.

Ability and Creativity in Mathematics
Review of Educational Research, 1973An earlier paper by the writer dealt briefly with intellective factors in learning mathematics, or, more precisely, with the structure and correlates of mathematical ability (Aiken, 1971). As a follow-up to that paper, an extensive review of the literature on language factors and mathematics learning was conducted, concluding, as did the first paper ...

Mathematical Ability and Masculinity
The Arithmetic Teacher, 1960The idea that men are Better than women at mathematics has been widespread. Many writers on education have taken it for granted; a few have tried to prove it. Unfortunately, the general acceptance of this assumption distorts the test results; achievement rather than innate ability is measured.

The mathematical abilities of children with cochlear implants
Child Neuropsychology, 2012Research has shown that cochlear implants give rise to improvements in speech recognition and production in children with profound hearing loss but very few studies have explored mathematical abilities in these children. The current study compared the mathematical abilities of 24 children with cochlear implants (mean age 10 years 1 month) to a control ...

Educational Assessment of Mathematics Skills and Abilities
Journal of Learning Disabilities, 1997Mathematics assessments play a valuable role in identifying students' strengths and weaknesses and in developing and monitoring instructional practice. Over the last century, mathematics assessment has been refined as math content has changed as a result of curriculum reform. Today, researchers and practitioners use various assessment techniques to (a)

Generalization Abilities in Mathematics
The Journal of Educational Research, 1946Building concepts, developing meanings, establishing principles, dis cerning relationships, and formulating and understanding generalizations are interrelated aims in the teaching of elementary mathematics. The form ulation and the understanding of generalizations, sufficiently adequate for intelligent use, may well be considered as culminations of the

The Assessment of Mathematical Abilities
Educational Research, 1983Summary Experience has suggested that the common, generalized assessment of mathematical ability by a single grade in a mathematics examination is inadequate. On the hypothesis that the thinking involved in mathematical activity may be resolved into four distinct, but not discreet, components: computational operations, pattern recognition, logical ...

Mathematics and Intellectual Abilities
The Mathematics Teacher, 1937Although your present speaker is not directly engaged in the problems of curriculum, he bas a very strong belief in the importance of mathematics and exact sciences in modern education. In passing, he merely wishes to note that we are living in a modern world requiring exactness, precision, split-second decisions, balance sheets that balance, and ...
