“…Numerous studies have provided evidence for arithmetic deficits and difficulty with math fact retrieval in children with DLD throughout the school-aged years. Research in 6-to 11-year-olds with DLD has documented poor written addition and subtraction relative to controls (Alloway & Stein, 2014;Donlan et al, 2007;Kleemans, Segers, & Verhoeven, 2012Mainela-Arnold, Alibali, Ryan, & Evans, 2011;Willinger et al, 2017), poor accuracy on spoken arithmetic problems (Jordan, Levine, & Huttenlocher, 1995), and a strong correlation between arithmetic accuracy and fact retrieval of addition problems (Cowan et al, 2005). Accuracy on addition and subtraction tasks in children with DLD is also correlated with linguistic skills such as phonological awareness and grammatical ability, as well as general intelligence (Kleemans et al, 2012;Kleemans et al, 2013).…”
