Begle, E. G.; And Others – 1975
Examined were the effects of varying the number of practice problems in a programed unit on negative bases designed for high school students. A sample of 421 students from grades 9 through 12 was divided into three groups on the basis of amount of mathematics coursework completed. Students were given four pretests (numeration, arithmetic…

Galbraith, Mary J. – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 1975
Hypothesizing that subtraction of (negative) integers requires formal operations, the author describes a study of children's understanding of related concepts. The study involves the use of apparatus embodying properties of the number line. (SD)
