Can we be intelligent about intelligence?: Why education needs the concept of plastic general ability (2007, background): “On the other hand, Nunes et al. (2007) has recently produced evidence from a maths intervention with 8 to 9 year-olds that a Piagetian logic test explained variance over and above that provided by a test of working memory and a general intelligence test.”
The Importance of Additive Reasoning in Children’s Mathematical Achievement: A Longitudinal Study (2017, methodology): “On the basis of previous studies (e.g., Canobi et al., 2003; Gilmore & Bryant, 2006; Nunes et al., 2007, 2012), an a priori power analysis (Cohen, 1988; GPower 3.1; Faul, Erdfelder, Lang, & Buchner, 2007) indicated that a minimum sample size of 91 was needed to detect a medium effect size [using…”
The role of individual and contextual factors in the development of maths skills (2009, background): “Earlier studies using different verbal and reasoning measures also demonstrated the importance of these abilities in solving maths tasks (Delgado & Prieto, 2004; Fuchs et al., 2006; Nunes et al., 2007).”
Towards understanding the origins of children's difficulties in mathematics learning (2011, background): “…is necessary for further development of multiplicative concepts, including the base ten system and unitising (Confrey, 1994; Lamon, 1996; Mulligan & Watson, 1998; Nunes et al., 2007; Steffe, 1994; Thomas et al., 2002) or fractions and units of measurement (Battista, 2003; Olive & Steffe, 2002).”
A Synthesis of Research on Deaf and Hearing Children's Mathematical Achievement (2011, background): “In hearing children, previous studies have demonstrated that non-verbal intelligence predicts mathematical achievement (Nunes et al., 2007) and, therefore, controlling for this factor in the investigation of deaf and hearing children’s mathematical abilities can provide more accurate estimates of de”
