几位作者认为,数学障碍可能是由于抑制无关信息的困难造成的。本研究通过评估40名10岁儿童的三种抑制功能来解决这一问题:工作记忆中无关信息的抑制、优势反应的抑制和干扰控制。我们发现,数学残疾儿童和典型的控制力儿童之间没有显著差异,或者算术事实残疾儿童和算术事实技能高于平均水平的儿童之间没有显著差异。这些发现,与其他经验证据和理论考虑一起,对抑制缺陷假说提出了质疑。
Several authors have argued that mathematical disabilities might result from difficulties in inhibiting irrelevant information. The present study addresses this issue by assessing three inhibition functions in 40 ten-year-old children: suppression of irrelevant information from working memory, inhibition of prepotent responses, and interference control. We found no significant differences between children with math disabilities and typically achieving controls, or between children with arithmetic facts disabilities and children with above-average arithmetic facts skills. These findings, along with other empirical evidence and with theoretical considerations, cast doubt on the inhibition deficit hypothesis.
