Children's Use of Mathematical Structure.
Baroody, Arthur J.; And Others
Journal for Research in Mathematics Education, v14 n3 p156-68 May 1983
Use of the commutativity, addition-subtraction complement, and N+1 progression principles was studied by interviewing 54 capable pupils in grades 1-3. Commutativity was used extensively at each grade, while the addition-subtraction principle to solve subtraction varied across grades, and the N+1 pattern was seldom used. (MNS)
