Fact-Retrieval Automatization and Math Problem Solving by Learning Disabled, Attention-Disordered, and Normal Adolescents.
Zentall, Sydney S.
Journal of Educational Psychology, v82 n4 p856-65 Dec 1990
Fifteen learning-disabled (LD), 33 attention disordered (AD), and 28 normal adolescents were assessed with 2 performance measures and 3 behavioral measures while working on mathematics problems. Findings support theoretical predictions that LD and AD children have difficulty with repetitive stimuli, contributing to mathematics deficits. (SLD)
