The aim of this study is to investigate the relationship between the object ability, basic movement ability, and mathematical ability of young children. Next, through this study, the influence of young children's object manipulation ability and basic movement ability on mathematical ability was investigated. The subjects of this study were 80 children aged 5 years old. As a research tool, the non-mobile movement and mobile movement, the basic movement development test scale, and the young children's picture-mathematical ability test scale were used. This survey was conducted from October 2018 to January 2019. For data analysis, correlation analysis and hierarchical multiple regression analysis were performed using the spss program. As a result of the study, it was found that there was a significant positive correlation between the non-mobile ability, movement ability, object manipulation ability and mathematical ability of young children. It was found that young children's ability to manipulate objects and non-movement abilities had positive effect on their mathematical abilities. The movement ability of young children had both negative and positive effects on mathematical ability, but it was not found to be statistically significant. This study is meaningful in that it investigated the effects of non-mobile movement, mobile movement ability, and object manipulation ability, which are sub-capabilities of basic movement ability, which had not been investigated so far, on the mathematical ability of young children.

The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of counting ability on young children's mathematical ability and mathematical learning potential. The subjects in this study were 75 young children of 4 & 5 years old who attended kindergartens and child care center in the city of B. They were evaluated in terms of counting ability, mathematical ability and mathematical learning potential(training and transfer) and the correlation between sub-factors and their relative influence on the partipants' mathematical ability was then analyzed. The findings of the study were as follows : First, there was a close correlation between the sub-factors of counting and those of mathematical ability. As a result of checking the relative influence of the sub-factors of counting on mathematical ability, reverse counting was revealed to have the largest impact on total mathematical ability scores and each sub-factors including algebra, number and calculation, geometry and measurement. Second, the results revealed a strong correlation between counting ability and mathematical learning ability. Regarding the size of the relative influence of the sub-factors of counting ability on training scores, reverse counting was found to be most influential, followed by continuous counting. While in relation to transfer scores, reverse counting was found to exert the greatest influence.

본 연구는 한국교육개발원에서 개발한 '수학 창의적 문제해결력 검사'를 사용하여 한국과 미국의 초등학교 6학년군 학생들의 수학 창의성과 수학적 사고력을 비교한 것이다. 연구 대상은 한국의 6학년 학생 212명과 미국의 5~7학년 학생 148명이며, 2009년 4월에 검사를 실시하였다. 본 연구의 도구에 대한 검증은 SPSS 12.0K로 신뢰도(Cronbach ${\alpha}$)와 변별도를 구하고 Rasch의 1모수 문항반응이론으로 적합도 지수와 난이도를 구하였으며, 연구 자료에 대한 통계적 분석은 t-검정, 일원변량분석과 Scheffe의 다중 비교를 사용하였다. 연구 결과로서, 한국 학생들이 미국 학생들보다 수학 창의성과 수학적 사고력에서 높은 점수를 얻었고 또 수학 창의성과 수학적 사고력에서 수학 개념의 이해가 중요한 요인임을 확인하였다. 또한 미국 학생들의 경우 초등학교 5학년과 6학년은 수학 창의성의 모든 하위 영역에서 차이가 있었으며 수학적 사고력에서는 6개의 하위영역 중 4개에서 차이가 있음을 발견하였다. 이것은 초등학교 5학년과 6학년을 하나의 학년군으로 하는 2009 개정 교육과정에 시사점을 줄 것이다.

Mathematics education is generally to cultivate mathematical thought. Most meaningful thought is to solve a certain given situation, that is, a problem. The aim of mathematies education could be identified with the cultivation of mathematical problem-solving ability. To cultivate mathematical problem-solving ability, it is necessary to study the nature of mathematical ability and its aspects pertaining to problem-solving ability. The purpose of this study is to investigate the relation between problem-solving ability and classficational viewpoint of mathematical verbal problems, and bet ween the detailed abilities of problem-solving procedure and classificational viewpoint of mathematical verbal problems. With the intention of doing this work, two tests were given to the third-year students of middle school, one is problem-solving test and the other classificational viewpoint test. The results of these two tests are follow ing. 1. The detailed abilities of problem-solving procedure are correlated with each other: such as ability of understanding, execution and looking-back. 2. From the viewpoint of structure and context, students classified mathematical verbal problems. 3. The students who are proficient at problem-solving, understanding, execution, and looking-back have a tendency to classify mathematical verbal problems from a structural viewpoint, while the students who are not proficient at the above four abilities have a tendency to classify mathematical verbal problems from a contextual viewpoint. As the above results, following conclusions can be made. 1. The students have recognized at least two fundamental dimensions of structure and context when they classified mathematical verbal problems. 2. The abilities of understanding, execution, and looking- back effect problem-solving ability correlating with each other. 3. The instruction emphasizing the importance of the structure of mathematical problems could be one of the methods cultivating student's problem-solving ability.

The purpose of this study is to develop a test which can be used in identification of the gifted students in the area of mathematics. This study was carried out for two years from 1996. Mathematical giftedness is, in this study, regarded as a result of interaction of mathematical thinking ability, mathematical creativity, mathematical task committment, background knowledge. This study presumed that mathematical thinking ability is composed of seven thinking abilities: intuitive insights, ability for information organization, ability for visualization, ability for mathematical abstraction, inferential thinking ability(both inductive and deductive thinking abilities), generalization and application ability, and reflective thinking. This study also presupposed that mathematical creativity is composed of 3 characteristics: fluency, flexibility, originality. The test for mathematical creative problem solving ability was developed for primary, middle, and high school students. The test is composed of two parts: the first part is concentrated more on divergent thinking, while the second part is more on convergent thinking. The major targets of the test were the students whose achievement level in mathematics belong to top 15~20% in each school. The goodness of the test was examined in the aspects of reliability, validity, difficulty, and discrimination power. Cronbach $\alpha$ was in the range of .60~.75, suggesting that the test is fairly reliable. The validity of the test was examined through the correlation among the test results for mathematical creative problem solving ability, I. Q., and academic achievement scores in mathematics and through the correlation between the scores in the first part and the scores in the second part of the test for mathematical creative problem solving ability. The test was found to be very difficult for the subjects. However, the discrimination power of the test was at the acceptable level.

본 연구는 문제해결력을 증진시키기 위한 방안으로 상황을 제시한 후 W(상황표현하기)-Q(문제 만들기)-A(답하기)에 의한 단계별 활동을 하여 그 효과성을 알아보았다. 이 방법을 2학년에게 한 학기동안 20차시를 적용한 결과 문제해결력은 향상된 것으로 나타났고, 태도에서는 융통성은 향상되었고 나머지 영역은 유의미한 차이는 없었지만 전반적으로 평균이 높아진 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 따라서 WQA 문제만들기 활동은 아동의 문제해결력을 증진시키고 태도를 개선하는 좋은 방법임을 알 수 있었다.
