• Visuospatial working memory in intuitive geometry, and in academic achievement in geometry (2013, background): “The psychological aspects of geometry have received attention from both developmental psychologists (e.g., Piaget, 1960; Piaget & Inhelder, 1967) and educational psychologists (e.g., Clements, 2003, 2004; Clements & Battista, 1992; Crowley, 1987; Owens & Outrhed, 2006; Van Hiele, 1986).”
