• Computer-Assisted Intervention for Children with Low Numeracy Skills (2009, background): “Similarly, working memory has been shown to be a good predictor of children numerical development (Andersson & Lyxell, 2007; Gersten, Jordan, & Flojo, 2005; Kyttälä & Lehto, 2008; McLean & Hitch, 1999; Passolunghi, Vercelloni, & Schadee, 2007; Van der Sluis et al., 2005).”
• Why is It so Hard to Solve Long Divisions for 10-Year-Old Children? (2015, background): “The fact that spatial skills predict performance on broad measures of math achievement such as the SAT-M or word problems [21,22,24,25] suggests that spatial processing might be implicated in other domains of mathematics beyond those that are ostensibly spatial, like geometry.”
• Enhancing Children's Spatial and Numerical Skills through a Dynamic Spatial Approach to Early Geometry Instruction: Effects of a 32-Week Intervention (2017, background): “…thinking has been linked to performance in geometry (Battista, 1990;Delgado&Prieto, 2004), as one might expect, but also to mental arithmetic (Kyttälä & Lehto, 2008), basic magnitude and counting skills (Kyttälä, Aunio, Lehto, Van Luit, & Hautamaki, 2003; Thompson, Nuerk, Moeller, & Cohen…”
• Effects of mental rotation training on children’s spatial and mathematics performance: A randomized controlled study (2015, background): “Finally, spatial thinking and mathematics performance both appear to rely heavily on visual–spatial working memory [25,28].”
• Working memory and mathematics: A review of developmental, individual difference, and cognitive approaches. (2010, background): “In adolescents, relations between visual–spatial working memory and math have been found (Kyttala & Lehto, 2008; Reukhala, 2001) with some differences reported for static and dynamic measures of visual– spatial workingmemory, depending on the particular math skill being measured (e.g., static…”
