Interaction of Spatial Visualization and General Reasoning Abilities with Instructional Treatment in Quadratic Inequalities: A Follow-Up Study

Subjects were randomly assigned to two methods of instruction for a unit on quadratic inequalities. It was expected that spatial visualization scores would predict transfer from the analytic approach while general reasoning would predict transfer from the graphical approach. No interaction was found...
