Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Mathematics education
  • Cognition
  • Statistics

Mathematics education, Cognition, Arithmetic, Word problem and Mathematics instruction are his primary areas of study. His studies in Mathematics education integrate themes in fields like Test and Pedagogy. His Cognition study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Developmental psychology, Context, Social psychology and Thinking processes.

His Subtraction and Elementary arithmetic study in the realm of Arithmetic connects with subjects such as Empirical data. His research in Word problem intersects with topics in Surprise, Sense of agency and Educational systems. His Mathematics instruction research incorporates elements of Early adolescents, Correlation, Task, Age differences and Algebra over a field.

His most cited work include:

  • Making sense of word problems (418 citations)
  • The Predictive Value of Numerical Magnitude Comparison for Individual Differences in Mathematics Achievement. (293 citations)
  • Working Memory and Individual Differences in Mathematics Achievement: A Longitudinal Study from First Grade to Second Grade. (273 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Lieven Verschaffel mainly focuses on Mathematics education, Cognitive psychology, Arithmetic, Pedagogy and Subtraction. His study in Mathematics education is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Rational number and Flemish. His work on Rational number is being expanded to include thematically relevant topics such as Natural number.

Lieven Verschaffel has researched Cognitive psychology in several fields, including Developmental psychology, Task and Cognition, Numerosity adaptation effect. As part of his studies on Numerosity adaptation effect, Lieven Verschaffel often connects relevant areas like Judgement. His Numerical digit research extends to Subtraction, which is thematically connected.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Mathematics education (39.22%)
  • Cognitive psychology (13.39%)
  • Arithmetic (12.91%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2014-2021)?

  • Mathematics education (39.22%)
  • Cognitive psychology (13.39%)
  • Association (3.67%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Lieven Verschaffel spends much of his time researching Mathematics education, Cognitive psychology, Association, Developmental psychology and Rational number. Lieven Verschaffel studies Primary education which is a part of Mathematics education. His work carried out in the field of Cognitive psychology brings together such families of science as Multiplicative function, Task and Educational psychology.

Lieven Verschaffel has researched Association in several fields, including Cognition and Mathematical development. His research in Developmental psychology focuses on subjects like Numerosity adaptation effect, which are connected to Reading, Mathematical competencies and Working memory. His Rational number research incorporates elements of Natural number and Conceptual change.

Between 2014 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Associations of Number Line Estimation With Mathematical Competence: A Meta-analysis. (61 citations)
  • Teachers' content and pedagogical content knowledge on rational numbers: A comparison of prospective elementary and lower secondary school teachers (53 citations)
  • In search for the natural number bias in secondary school students' interpretation of the effect of arithmetical operations (34 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Mathematics education
  • Cognition
  • Statistics

His primary areas of investigation include Mathematics education, Cognitive psychology, Natural number, Rational number and Developmental psychology. He combines subjects such as Numeracy, Metacognition and Test with his study of Mathematics education. His Cognitive psychology research includes elements of Cognition, Mathematics instruction, Task and Educational psychology.

His Natural number study also includes

  • Structure, Primary education and Social psychology most often made with reference to Decimal,
  • Fraction that intertwine with fields like Knowledge level. His Rational number research includes themes of School teachers, Content knowledge, Content and Knowledge base. His Developmental psychology study incorporates themes from Mathematical development, Association, Alternative hypothesis and Numerosity adaptation effect.
