Prediction of mathematic performance in primary school by cross-domain and domain-specific precursor skills

Résumé

The predictive power of mathematics performance by precursor skills is analysed here at the time of primary level. Domain-specific and cross-domain precursor skills, collected from 62 students, explain about 45% of overall mathematics performance at the end of third grade. This percentage is consistent with the referenced literature. Cross-domain precursor skills (intelligence) predict significantly better than domain-specific ones (e.g., quantity-number knowledge). When considering gender differences within prediction, boys were measured to have higher predictive power than girls. This tendency has not yet been confirmed within the literature. Of practical relevance seems to be the fact that precursor skills are already developed at kindergarten age, represent the basis for mathematics performance at primary level, and thus should be developed as early as possible.
