Clarkson, Philip
Educational Studies in Mathematics, v14 n4 p355-67 Nov 1983
Interviews were used to find the frequency of different types of errors made by 95 sixth-year Papua New Guinea students on a mathematics test. The general trend was the same as for western students, but the Papua New Guinea students made far fewer careless errors. (MNS)
