Repeating Numbers Reduces Results: Violations of the Identity Axiom in Mental Arithmetic [PDF]
Frontiers in Psychology, 2018 Even simple mental arithmetic is fraught with cognitive biases. For example, adding repeated numbers (so-called tie problems, e.g., 2 + 2) not only has a speed and accuracy advantage over adding different numbers (e.g., 1 + 3) but may also lead to under ...

Knowing right from wrong in mental arithmetic judgments: calibration of confidence predicts the development of accuracy. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Does knowing when mental arithmetic judgments are right--and when they are wrong--lead to more accurate judgments over time? We hypothesize that the successful detection of errors (and avoidance of false alarms) may contribute to the development of ...

Contribution of Attentional Networks to Basic Arithmetic Achievement in School-age Children
Psicología Educativa: Revista de los Psicólogos de la Educación, 2022 Nowadays, there is still debate about the origin of arithmetic disabilities. Two predominant hypotheses have been developed in this regard: 1) difficulties in arithmetic appear due to a deficit in domain-specific skills (numerical skills) and 2) there is
