“…In children, other non-symbolic ratio tasks, such as proportional reasoning or fraction number line estimation, predict later conceptual and procedural fraction knowledge (Hansen et al, 2015;Jordan et al, 2013;Möhring, Newcombe, Levine, & Frick, 2015;Ye et al, 2016) as well as other formal mathematical abilities, such as performance on a standardized mathematics assessment (Resnick et al, 2016). Together, these findings support the idea that the neurocognitive architecture that processes non-symbolic ratios is related to formal, symbolic rational number processing and other forms of mathematical reasoning, but do not provide direct evidence that symbolic fractions elicit an analog internal magnitude representation in children.…”
