“…Performance on mathematics tasks also accounts for a large portion of mathematics achievement, after controlling for IQ (Geary, Hoard, & Hamson, 1999). Further, this relationship continues through middle school and algebra achievement, even after controlling for gender and IQ (Flexer, 1984). Similarly, scores on standardized mathematics tests, including the math section of the Scholastic Assessment Test (or the SAT I: Reasoning Test), are significantly predictive of, and correlated with, future mathematics and academic performance, after controlling for major, in-state residence, and hometown population (Chimka, ReedRhoads, & Barker, 2007-2008Mauger & Kolmodin, 1975;Stumpf & Stanley, 2002).…”
