Peer reviewedLittlefield, Joan; Rieser, John J. – Cognition and Instruction, 1993
Devised a model that hypothesized that students, in discriminating relevant information in mathematical story problems, search for values of semantic categories that match those in the problem. Two experiments assessed the validity of the model. Results indicated that the model was an accurate predictor of discrimination performance for successful…

Wheatley, Grayson H.; Wheatley, Charlotte L. – 1982
This study was designed to investigate the effectiveness of a heuristic approach to problem-solving instruction. The 330 subjects were randomly assigned to either a Problem Solving, Calculator Problem Solving, or Control group. The two experimental groups studied problem-solving heuristics applied to nonroutine problems for 18 weeks, after which…
