This study's purpose was to investigate effects of 3 intervention approaches for building
working memory (WM) and improving word-problem solving (WPS). Children with …

Cognitive strategies are important tools for children with math difficulties (MD) in learning to
solve word problems. The effectiveness of strategy training, however, depends on working …

A randomized control study investigated the role of strategy instruction on problem-solving
solution accuracy in elementary school children with math difficulties MD (N= 162) who …

This study investigated the role of strategy instruction and working memory capacity (WMC)
on word problem solving accuracy in children with (n= 100) and without (n= 92) math …

Mathematical ability is dependent on specific mathematical training but also associated with
a range of cognitive factors, including working memory (WM) capacity. Previous studies …

This study investigated the role of strategy instruction and working memory capacity (WMC)
on problem solving solution accuracy in children with and without math disabilities (MD) …

The focus of this article is the well documented association between low working memory
capacity and difficulty with mathematical word-problem solving. We begin by describing a …

The purpose of this meta-analysis was to determine the relation between mathematics and
working memory (WM) and to identify possible moderators of this relation including domains …

Researchers are increasingly interested in working memory (WM) training. However, it is
unclear whether it strengthens comprehension in young children who are at risk for learning …

This study examined how working memory (WM) and mathematics performance are related
among students entering mathematics-intensive undergraduate STEM programs (N= 317) …
