Abstract:

visuospatial working memory and non-verbal fluid intelligence played an important part in pupils’ mathematical performance .The study examined how the two factors affected pupils’mathematical performance. Its result indicates that Different subscores of mathematical skills (geometry, word problems, and mental arithmetic) were accounted for by fluid intelligence and different measures of VSWM,Passive simultaneous VSWM is a significant predictor in mental arithmetic, active VSWM in geometry and passive sequential VSWM in maths word problems.The effect of VSWM on athematical performance was observed to be mediated by fluid intelligence.

Key words: active visuospatial working memory, Passive visuospatial working memory, non-verbal fluid intelligence, Mathematical Performance

摘要：

研究采用3(数学问题类型)×6(视空间工作记忆组别)×2(非言语流体智力水平)三因素混合实验设计，探讨了视空间工作记忆和非言语流体智力对小学生数学问题解题水平的影响。结果表明：（1）视空间工作记忆和非言语智力在小学生数学问题解题中起着重要作用；（2）不同的视空间工作记忆成分对不同类型的数学问题解决的影响是不同的，被动同时性视空间工作记忆容量是解决心算问题的显著预测变量，主动视空间工作记忆是几何应用题解决中的一个显著预测变量，被动序列视空间工作记忆是文字应用题解决中一个显著的预测变量；（3）在视空间工作记忆对数学问题解决水平的影响上，非言语流体智力起到了中介作用。
