Low and High Mathematics Achievement in Japanese, Chinese, and American Elementary-School Children.
Uttal, David H.; And Others
Developmental Psychology, v24 n3 p335-42 May 1988
First and fifth grade students who scored high or low on a mathematics test were tested for intellectual ability and reading achievement. Students and their mothers were interviewed. Results indicated that factors associated with levels of achievement in mathematics operate in a similar fashion across three cultures that differ greatly in their children's level of mathematics achievement.
