The Demands of Simple and Complex Arithmetic Word Problems on Language and Cognitive Resources
Frontiers in Psychology, 2021 Solving arithmetic word problems requires constructing a situation model based on the problem text and translating that into a mathematical model. As such, word problem solving makes demands on students’ language comprehension and their domain-general ...

Analogy-Based Selective Problem Solving Learning on the Skill to Solve Word Problems
Edunesia: Jurnal Ilmiah Pendidikan, 2023 Researchers generally use SPS learning to develop creative thinking and problem-solving through analogical thinking. While the problem-solving word problems of elementary school students still need a lot of attention. This study aims to determine the application of analogy-based particular problem-solving (SPS) learning to improve students' problem ...

Semantic congruence in arithmetic: A new conceptual model for word problem solving
, 2020 Arithmetic problem solving is a crucial part of mathematics education. However, existing problem solving theories do not fully account for the semantic constraints partaking in the encoding and recoding of arithmetic word problems.

Solving Word Problems: As Easy as PIES!
Journal of Science Education for Students with Disabilities, 2011 Many students are challenged when tasked to complete a word problem. While they may know the procedural steps to solve an equation, translating a word problem into an appropriate equation and producing a solution may often cause students to become confused or unwilling to try.

The Influence of Attitudes and Beliefs on the Problem-Solving Performance
Frontiers in Education, 2021 The problem-solving performance of primary school students depend on their attitudes and beliefs. As it is not easy to change attitudes, we aimed to change the relationship between problem-solving performance and attitudes with a training program.

The role of understanding in solving word problems
Cognitive Psychology, 1988 Abstract Word problems are notoriously difficult to solve. We suggest that much of the difficulty children experience with word problems can be attributed to difficulty in comprehending abstract or ambiguous language. We tested this hypothesis by (1) requiring children to recall problems either before or after solving them, (2) requiring them to ...
