Bidirectional Relations Between Spatial and Mathematics Skills in Elementary School Children: The Role of Domain-Specific Anxieties
Research has demonstrated a link between spatial and mathematics skills, although less research has addressed the directionality of this relation and what factors may impact the spatial–mathematics link. Two such factors may be spatial and mathematics anxiety, which are related to performance in their respective domains, but may also play a cross-domain role in the relation between spatial and mathematics skills. Importantly, these relations are …
Synergistic Relations of Teacher and Parent Burnout and Preschooler’s Social-Emotional Competence and Behavioral Self-Regulation
Research Findings: This study investigated the synergistic relationships between teacher burnout and parent burnout on preschoolers’ social-emotional competence (SEC) and behavioral self-regulation (BSR). We hypothesized that higher teacher burnout would be associated with lower social skills and BSR and higher problem behaviors in the spring. We expected that higher parent burnout would relate to poorer child outcomes. Guided by the dual risk fr…
Executive function, math, and spatial skills in English learners and English speakers
Social–Emotional Competence as a Predictor of Early Numeracy Skills
Research Findings: This study examined the association between preschool children’s social-emotional competence (SEC), defined by their social skills and problem behaviors, and numeracy skills. It also examined if any subdomains of SEC predicted preschool numeracy above and beyond latent social skills or problem behaviors variables. Data came from a state-funded prekindergarten evaluation study (N = 684) and were collected using teacher-reported …
A meta-analytic review of the relation between spatial anxiety and spatial skills
08). Our results are consistent with previous findings of a significant relation between spatial anxiety and skills, and this work bridges a gap in the existing research, lending support to future research efforts investigating spatial cognition.

Testing block play as an effective mechanism for promoting early math, executive function, and spatial skills in preschoolers from low-income backgrounds
Examining the relations between spatial skills and mathematical performance: A meta-analysis
A meta-analysis of the relation between math anxiety and math achievement
Meta-analyses from the 1990s previously have established a significant, small-to-moderate, and negative correlation between math achievement and math anxiety. Since these publications, research has continued to investigate this relation with more diverse samples and measures. Thus, the goal of the present meta-analysis was to provide an update of the math anxiety-math achievement relation and its moderators. Analyzing 747 effect sizes accumulated…
Relations between spatial skills and math performance in elementary school children: A longitudinal investigation
Previous research has demonstrated a link between spatial and math skills. However, little research has examined this relation longitudinally. The present study examines the development of and reciprocal relations between spatial and math skills in elementary school students. We administered two spatial tasks and a math task to 312 first- through third-grade students who were tested in the spring for three consecutive school years. Linear growth …
