TLDR
This article investigated the developmental predictors of children's fraction concepts and procedures at the end of fourth grade in a 2-year longitudinal study and found that number line estimation, attentive behavior, calculation fluency, and working memory made unique contributions to the acquisition of fraction arithmetic procedures.About:

Conceptual explanations and understanding fraction comparisons
TL;DR: This article showed that although conceptual explanations are strongly associated with correct answers, they are not employed equally across different contexts, and the highest performing students tend to use more general explanations, which may or may not be conceptual.

The Codevelopment of Children's Fraction Arithmetic Skill and Fraction Magnitude Understanding.
TL;DR: For example, this paper found that fraction arithmetic skills predicted later fraction magnitude understanding, and conversely, fraction magnitude comprehension predicted fraction arithmetic skill, while knowledge of one type facilitates learning of the other type.

Longitudinal changes in young children's 0-100 to 0-1000 number-line error signatures.
TL;DR: Findings from the LDS model support the claim that children’s NL error signatures generalize over task and time and thus can be used to predict math ability.
Journal ArticleDOI
Developmental Foundations of Children's Fraction Magnitude Knowledge.
TL;DR: The key results suggest fluent processing of numerator-denominator relations presages students' understanding of fractions as magnitudes and that the integration of whole number and fraction magnitudes occurs gradually.

Predicting success on high-stakes math tests from preschool math measures among children from low-income homes
TL;DR: This article found that nonsymbolic quantity knowledge and repeating pattern knowledge at the end of preschool were reliable predictors of performance on standards-based high-stakes tests across three different grade levels.

Applied multiple regression/correlation analysis for the behavioral sciences
TL;DR: In this article, the Mathematical Basis for Multiple Regression/Correlation and Identification of the Inverse Matrix Elements is presented. But it does not address the problem of missing data.

Applied Multivariate Statistics for the Social Sciences
TL;DR: In this article, the authors focus on a conceptual understanding of the material rather than proving results and stress the importance of checking the data, assessing the assumptions, and ensuring adequate sample size so that the results can be generalized.
