Error Analysis of Mathematical Word Problem Solving across Students with and without Learning Disabilities (2014, background): “Research by Montague and Applegate (2000) corroborates this ﬁnding, where students with LD showed difﬁculties in problem representation and problem planning, including setting-up the problem with appropriate numbers and operations.”
A Follow–Up of Mathematics Interventions for Secondary Students with Learning Disabilities (2007, background): “A study by Montague and Applegate (2000) examined the perceptions/efﬁcacy and learning habits of students with LD.”
Assistance of students with mathematical learning difficulties: how can research support practice? (2016, background): “In addition, the transformation of word problems into mathematical expressions and, as a consequence, difficulties in solving word problems seem to be widespread (e.g. Montague and Applegate 2000; Moser Opitz 2013; Parmar et al. 1996; Zhang and Xin 2012).”
Subgroups of Attributional Profiles in Students with Learning Difficulties and Their Relation to Self–Concept and Academic Goals (2005, background): “Other researchers have also found that these children generalize their beliefs (low self-efﬁcacy expectations, low self-esteem, poor motivation) to academic tasks or areas where they had not failed previously, or to those tasks where they are really capable (Montague & Applegate, 2001).”
