Biosocial Aspects of Mathematics Learning.
Fischbein, Siv
Scandinavian Journal of Educational Research, v23 n1 p1-14 1979
Standardized mathematics test results of a twin sample during grades 3 and 6 were interpreted according to an interactional heredity x environment model. Results indicated that similar school instruction made monozygotic twins more alike but dizygotic twins less alike in mathematics knowledge. Social background effects were also studied. (SJL)
