Description
This book examines the mathematical difficulties in typical and atypical populations. It discusses the behavioural, educational and neuropsychological
characteristics of people with mathematical difficulties, and educational interventions to prevent, diagnose, treat or ameliorate such
difficulties. The book brings together studies from different disciplines, including developmental psychology, neuroscience and education,
and includes perspectives from practicing teachers.
The book is divided into three major sections. The first includes chapters about
the nature and characteristics of mathematical difficulties in the population as a whole, in relation to both psychology and education.
The second deals with mathematical difficulties in children with other problems such as specific language impairment and dyslexia. The
third discusses methods of interventions aimed at preventing, treating or ameliorating mathematical difficulties, and will include discussions
of assessment and diagnosis.
Audience
Academic researchers in psychology and education, educational psychologists, and mathematics teachers. Also will interest upper-level undergraduate and graduate students in psychology or education.
