Dividing attention increases operational momentum [PDF]
When adding or subtracting two quantities, adults often compute an estimated outcome that is larger or smaller, respectively, than the actual outcome, a bias referred to as “operational momentum”.

Perceived Motion and Operational Momentum: How Speed, Distance, and Time Influence Two-Digit Arithmetic [PDF]
Operational momentum was originally defined as a bias toward underestimating outcomes of subtraction and overestimating outcomes of addition. It was suggested that these estimation biases are due to leftward attentional shift along the mental number-line

Operational momentum in multiplication and division? [PDF]
Biases are commonly seen in numerical cognition. The operational momentum (OM) effect shows that responses to addition and subtraction problems are biased in the whole-number direction of the operation.

The Developmental Trajectory of the Operational Momentum Effect [PDF]
Mental calculation is thought to be tightly related to visuospatial abilities. One of the strongest evidence for this link is the widely replicated operational momentum (OM) effect: the tendency to overestimate the result of additions and to ...

Examining the presence and determinants of operational momentum in childhood [PDF]
The operational momentum (OM) effect describes a systematic bias in estimating the outcomes of simple addition and subtraction problems. Outcomes of addition problems are overestimated while outcomes of subtraction problems are underestimated. The origin
