• Variability in the natural number bias: Who, when, how, and why (2015, background): “Another class of strategies for solving magnitude comparison problems involves more effortful strategies (akin to “back-up” strategies for solving arithmetic problems; Siegler & Shipley, 1995).”
• Feedback Both Helps and Hinders Learning: The Causal Role of Prior Knowledge (2016, background): “Further, several researchers suggest that delaying feedback may be particularly beneficial for learners with higher knowledge in the target domain relative to lower knowledge learners (Mason & Bruning, 2001; Shute, 2008), though this has never been experimentally tested.”
• Girls’ Spatial Skills and Arithmetic Strategies in First Grade as Predictors of Fifth-Grade Analytical Math Reasoning (2017, methodology): “Research has shown that even low-frequency use of adaptive strategies in first grade may be a positive early indicator of later effective flexible strategy use (Carr & Alexeev, 2011; Siegler & Shipley, 1995).”
