The mathematics achievement discrepancy between girls and boys, with its subsequent occupational consequences, is an issue that has received considerable attention in the literature. It is often referred to as the ‘math-gap’ and favours boys. A major component of the explanation of this gap resides in determining its age of onset. We analyse here d...

Young children's mathematics abilities may be divided between symbolic and non-symbolic skills. Lower performance of SES disadvantaged versus advantaged children has already been established in symbolic math. This study aimed to verify the effect of children's SES category on non-symbolic mathematical (numerical) performance. The main sample compri...
Modernization of higher education focuses on improving the mathematical training of technical specialists. Qualitative mathematical training forms the ability of graduates to mastering both general scientific and special disciplines. The article considers various approaches to the formational of mathematical thinking, allowing graduates to successf...
