Abstract | This study showed that Oksapmin children not only spontaneously use the indigenous numerical system of their nontechnical culture but also have created new forms of numerical symbolization and calculation to deal with schooling arithmetic problems. Novel conceptual developments, factors mediating the schools effect, and the influence of prior knowledge are discussed. (Author/BS) |
