Subclaims¶
Reading the evidence codes
q is the design tier, i the impact, n the sample, and the kind with its r
the rigour judged within that kind: what each code means.
This claim: no standardized effect is recorded in observations/ for it yet, so no benchmark reading is possible.
q3 i? Factual knowledge was not a significant predictor of inhibition skill in the combined sample or in either age group. → Camilla Gilmore 2015
Evidence¶
Camilla Gilmore 2015¶
Camilla Gilmore, Sarah Keeble, Sophie Richardson, Lucy Cragg. (2015). The role of cognitive inhibition in different components of arithmetic. ZDM Mathematics Education. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11858-014-0659-y
q3 · i? · associational · r2
Regression across all participants testing factual, procedural and conceptual scores simultaneously against inhibition. The article reports "factual knowledge was not a significant predictor (0 = 0.045, p = .654)"; no equivalence test was conducted.
"This revealed that factual knowledge was not a significant predictor (0 = 0.045, p = .654), procedural skill was a significant predictor (β = −0.260, p = .007)"
Discussion¶
Learner Variables¶
- Arithmetic Fact Retrieval — outcome: instruction changes it
- Operations and Place Value — outcome: instruction changes it
Related Claims¶
- Inhibition relates to procedural skill in secondary-school children but to conceptual understanding in adults — related
- Inhibition's role in arithmetic fact retrieval may be limited to atypically developing children — related
- Non-symbolic magnitude processing shows mixed associations with inhibition measures — related
