AbstractThe current study investigated the relation between the understanding of the relation to operands (RO) principle and children’s mathematical problem-solving. A sample of 202 Chinese fifth graders (57% boys) were assessed on their RO understanding. Their mathematical problem-solving were assessed four times over two years. Results from latent growth curve modelling showed that RO understanding predicted the growth in mathematical problem-solving when confounding factors were controlled. The findings highlight the role of RO understanding in children’s mathematical development. Interventions should be developed to enhance children’s RO understanding.
