ABSTRACT

The purpose of this study is to compare the performance of mathematical word problem solving and solving process of children at grades 4 ~ 6 with mathematics disability with(MD + RD) and without comorbid reading disabilities (MD). Total of 26 students completed 4 types word problem (general word problem, longer word problem with a long sentence, word problem with changed order of data presentation and operation, word problem with irrelevant information) and responded regarding to the process of word problem with 4 Steps(understanding, planning carrying out, looking back). The results are below. First, there were significant differences on the performance of general word problem, longer word problem with a long sentence, and word problem with irrelevant information between children with MD + RD and MD only. However, no significant group difference was found on the performance of word problem with changed order of data presentation and operation. Second, there were significant difference for the process of solving word problem with 4 steps between children with MD + RD and MD only. Implication and recommendation for the instruction and study based on the results were suggested.
