Mathematics Instruction for Individuals with Mental Retardation: A Perspective and Research Synthesis
Abstract
This paper reviews the published intervention research in mathematics with subjects classified as mentally retarded. Twenty-five studies were located, reviewed and synthesized. Research has been conducted in three major areas: basic skills and concepts; rule learning and problem-solving; and applications, including use of time, money, and measurement skills. Results are discussed in relationship to instructional practices that have associated efficacy data, as well as to future research issues.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
