“…Comparable beneficial effects of drawing have been reported outside the mathematical domain such as in the comprehension of science topics from text (e.g., Schwamborn et al, 2010). Recent lines of research on the role of drawing in word problem-solving have focused on various aspects related to drawing such as the effects of strategic knowledge about drawing (i.e., students' views on the characteristics of a drawing that fit a given problem), the type of drawing (e.g., situational vs. mathematical; number lines, diagrams), and the accuracy of drawing (i.e., the correctness of representation of the relevant objects and relations, including the correct labeling of the drawing with numbers) on word problem solving performance (e.g., Chu et al, 2017;Csíkos et al, 2012;Gvozdic & Sander, 2020;Krawitz & Schukajlow, 2020;Munez et al, 2013;Ott, 2020;Rellensmann et al, 2019Rellensmann et al, , 2020. For the present study, particularly, the research on the accuracy of drawing is relevant as this work shows that benefits of drawing for word problem solving are strongly related to the accuracy of the drawing with more accurate drawings correlating with better word problem solving performance (e.g., De Bock et al, 1998).…”
