  • An Experimental Analysis of Research Assent in Children

    Open AccessSarah C Mead Jasperse, Javier Virúes‐Ortega et al.ARTICLEJournal of Empirical Research on…2026

  • Cognitive precursors of early mathematical competence in preschoolers

    Open AccessCarlos Mera, Malena Manchado Porras et al.ARTICLEEuropean Journal of Psychology of…2026

    Given the key role of mathematical competence in academic and personal development, this study analyzes the combined influence of domain-general and domain-specific cognitive precursors on early mathematical competence through a multivariate approach. It examines how different cognitive processes relate to mathematical performance in 5-year-old children, providing updated evidence to guide educational interventions. A total of 193 preschool child…

  • Mathematical performance in primary education

    Open AccessMalena Manchado Porras, María del Carmen Canto López et al.ARTICLEEuropean Journal of Psychology of…2026

    Despite the relevance of mathematics, many Spanish students encounter difficulties in the subject. It is essential to continue exploring the factors associated with mathematical performance, including cognitive, attitudinal, and methodological aspects. Given the presence of open scientific questions, this study aimed to contribute to theoretical and empirical knowledge in mathematical cognition by comparing students from instructional contexts us…

  • Predicting primary students' mathematical competence

    Open AccessMalena Manchado Porras, Carlos Mera Cantillo et al.ARTICLEActa Psychologica2026

    International assessments indicate a decline in mathematical performance in Spain, underscoring the need to research factors related to math achievement and to implement innovative teaching methods in classrooms that foster reasoning and a positive student attitude. This research aims to study the relationship between cognitive, attitudinal, and methodological factors and general mathematical performance, as well as analyze the explanatory weight…

  • Domain-general cognitive precursors and their relationship with mathematical competence in students aged 10 to 12 years

    Open AccessMaría del Carmen Canto López, Malena Manchado Porras et al.ARTICLECurrent Psychology2025

    Cognitive parameters such as fluid-intelligence, working-memory and processing-speed have been considered as precursors to performance in mathematics. Although their incidence is more widely known in early mathematical learning, their predictive capacity in ages following formal primary education is less explored. Likewise, there is still a wide margin for study for discovering whether the teaching methodology used for learning mathematics is als…

  • Numerical Processing With Different Teaching-Learning Methods

    Open AccessMaría del Carmen Canto López, Inmaculada Menacho Jiménez et al.ARTICLEPsychological Reports2025

    Background: Domain-specific and domain-general cognitive processes are critical in understanding how children develop mathematical competence, which is essential for their academic success and overall cognitive development. Objectives: The primary aim of this study was to analyze and compare mathematical competence and domain-specific variables, considering the teaching-learning method used. On the one hand, the Open Calculation Based on Numbers …
