Abstract According to LeFevre, Sadesky, and Bisanz (1996), averaging solution latencies in
order to study individuals' arithmetic strategies can result in misleading conclusions …

It is commonly accepted that repeatedly using mental procedures results in a transition to
memory retrieval, but the determinant of this process is still unclear. In a 3-week experiment …

Two experiments tested the hypothesis that simple arithmetic requires working memory
resources. Subjects were presented with a simple verification task (eg 8+ 4= 12. True …

In this study, 17 adult participants were trained to solve alphabet–arithmetic problems using
a production task (eg, C+ 3=?). The evolution of their performance across 12 practice …

An important paradigm in modeling the complexity of mathematical tasks relies on
computational complexity theory, in which complexity is measured through the resources …

Arithmetic cognition research was at one time concerned mostly with the representation and
retrieval of arithmetic facts in memory. More recently it was found that memory retrieval does …

A number of theories of mental arithmetic suggest that the ability to solve simple addition
and subtraction problems develops from an algorithmic strategy toward a strategy based on …

The area of cognitive arithmetic is concerned with the mental representation of number and
arithmetic, and the processes and procedures that access and use this knowledge. In this …

Memory for arithmetic facts provides a unique source of information about cognitive
structure, because the facts are unambiguous, commonly known, and finite in number. The …

There is broad consensus on the assumption that adults solve single-digit multiplication
problems almost exclusively by fact retrieval from memory. In contrast, there has been a long …
