ABSTRACT

The purpose of this study is to compare the RAN and number sense in children at risk for math learning disabilities (n=22) and normal children (n=22) and to identify the relationship between RAN and number sense. The results from this study are as following: First, there is a meaningful difference between two groups on the total score and objects, colors of RAN. Second, there is a meaningful difference between two groups on the total score and subtest scores of number sense. Third, there are negative correlations between RAN and number sense except for pattern among children at risk for MLD. A few correlations were found between RAN and number sense except for total RAN and RAN objects among normal children. Our findings indicate that RAN and number sense are major characteristics for MLD and there is a relationship between RAN and number sense. RAN and number sense would be considered important indicators of intervention plan for at risk students with math learning disabilities.
