Different complex word problems require different combinations of cognitive skills

چکیده
Abstract Mathematical word problem solving is influenced by various characteristics of the task and person it. Yet, previous research has rarely related these to holistically answer which requires set individual cognitive skills. In present study, we conducted a secondary data analysis on dataset N = 1282 undergraduate students six mathematical problems from Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA). Previous results had indicated substantial variability in contribution skills correct solution different tasks. Here, exploratively reanalyzed investigate may account this variability, considering verbal, arithmetic, spatial, general reasoning simultaneously. Results indicate that verbal were most consistent predictor successful tasks, arithmetic only predicted containing calculations, spatial rates presence visual representation, more relevant simpler could be easily solved using heuristics. We discuss possible implications, emphasizing how differ with regard required solve them correctly.

15 صفحه اولNeural networks: different problems require different learning rate adaptive methods
In a previous study, a new adaptive method (AM) was developed to adjust the learning rate in artificial neural networks: the generalized no-decrease adaptive method (GNDAM). The GNDAM is fundamentally different from other traditional AMs. Instead of using the derivative sign of a given weight to adjust its learning rate, this AM is based on a trial and error heuristic where global learning rate...
متن کاملMonkeys and apes: are their cognitive skills really so different?
Differences in cognitive skills across taxa, and between monkeys and apes in particular, have been explained by different hypotheses, although these often are not supported by systematic interspecific comparisons. Here, we directly compared the cognitive performance of the four great apes and three monkey species (spider monkeys, capuchin monkeys, and long-tailed macaques), differing in their p...
متن کاملWhy Measure Performance? Different Purposes Require Different Measures
measures are worthless. To use a performance measure—to extract information from it—a manager needs a specific, comparative gauge, plus an understanding of the relevant context. A truck has been driven 6.0 million. Six miUion what? Six million miles? That's impressive. Six million feet? That's only 1,136 miles. Six million inches? That's not even 95 miles. Big deal—unless those 95 miles were dr...
