Gender differences in scholastic achievement: a meta-analysis.
Daniel Voyer,Susan D. Voyer +1 more
TL;DR: The present meta-analysis demonstrated the presence of a stable female advantage in school marks while also identifying critical moderators, contradicting claims of a recent "boy crisis" in school achievement.

Formal and informal home learning activities in relation to children’s early numeracy and literacy skills: The development of a home numeracy model.
TL;DR: A multifaceted model of children's early numeracy environment, with different types of early home experiences (formal and informal) predicting different numeracy outcomes is supported.

Starting behind and staying behind in South Africa: The case of insurmountable learning deficits in mathematics
Nicholas Spaull,Janeli Kotze +1 more
TL;DR: This article quantified a year's worth of mathematics learning in South Africa (0.3 standard deviations) and used this measure to develop empirically calibrated learning trajectories, concluding that the later in life we attempt to repair early learning deficits in mathematics, the costlier the remediation becomes.

The Transition from Informal to Formal Mathematical Knowledge: Mediation by Numeral Knowledge.
TL;DR: Mediation analyses revealed that the relation between informal and formal mathematical knowledge is fully mediated by numeral knowledge, but only when both the skill ofnumeral identification and an understanding of numeral to quantity relations are considered.

Comparative fit indexes in structural models
TL;DR: A new coefficient is proposed to summarize the relative reduction in the noncentrality parameters of two nested models and two estimators of the coefficient yield new normed (CFI) and nonnormed (FI) fit indexes.
