This document is the fourth volume of the proceedings of the 29th Conference of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education. Conference papers are centered around the theme of "Learners and Learning Environments." This volume features 42 research reports by presenters with last names beginning between Mul and Wu: (1) Case Studies of Children's Development of Structure in Early Mathematics: A Two-Year Longitudinal Study (Joanne Mulligan, Michael Mitchelmore, and Anne Prescott); (2) A Case Study of How Kinesthetic Experiences Can Participate in and Transfer to Work with Equations (Ricardo Nemirovsky and Chris Rasmussen); (3) The Construction of Proportional Reasoning (Stephen Norton); (4) The Transition of a Secondary Mathematics Teacher: From a Reform Listener into a Believer (Jo Clay Olson and Karmen Kirtley); (5) Substantive Communication of Space Mathematics in Upper Primary School (Kay Owens); (6) Transforming Korean Elementary Mathematics Classrooms to Student-Centered Instruction (JeongSuk Pang); (7) The Effect of Improved Automaticity and Retrieval of Basic Number Skills on Persistently Low-Achieving Students (John Pegg, Lorraine Graham, and Anne Bellert); (8) Degrees of Freedom in Modeling: Taking Certainty out of Proportion (Irit Peled and Ronit Bassan-Cincinatus); (9) "I Know That You Don't Have to Work Hard": Mathematics Learning in the First Year of Primary School (Bob Perry and Sue Dockett); (10) Disentangling Mentors' Role in the Development of Prospective Teachers' Efficacy Beliefs in Teaching Mathematics (George Philippou and Charalambos Y.
