The relation between home numeracy activities and children's math skills: The moderating role of home numeracy resources
Home numeracy activities and resources are distinct dimensions of the home numeracy environment. Many researchers have documented the relation between home numeracy activities and children's numeracy skills. However, very few have explored the relation between the home numeracy resources and children's mathematical performance. We proposed that home numeracy resources moderate the relation between home numeracy activities and children's numeracy skills. To test this hypothesis, 294 Chinese parents were recruited to complete questionnaires on home numeracy activities and resources. Their children were tested on nonsymbolic and symbolic numerical tasks. We found that the positive relation between home numeracy activities and symbolic number processing was greater when resources were scarce; when resources were abundant, the relation between home numeracy activities and symbolic number processing was weaker or not significant. These findings highlight the importance of accounting for numeracy resources when exploring the relation of home numeracy activities on children's math skills.
Educational relevance statement
In the present study, we found that the way home numeracy activities relate to children's numeracy skills changes depending on the availability of home numeracy resources. When the availability of home numeracy resources was low, the relation between home numeracy activities and children's numeracy skills was positive; whereas when the availability of home numeracy resources was high, the relation between home numeracy activities and children's numeracy skills was weak or not significant. These results highlight the importance of both home numeracy activities and resources in the home learning environment.
期刊介绍:
Learning and Individual Differences is a research journal devoted to publishing articles of individual differences as they relate to learning within an educational context. The Journal focuses on original empirical studies of high theoretical and methodological rigor that that make a substantial scientific contribution. Learning and Individual Differences publishes original research. Manuscripts should be no longer than 7500 words of primary text (not including tables, figures, references).
