1.
Grenell A, Ernst J, Carlson S
Early Educ Dev . 2025 Jan; 35(8):1891-1919. PMID: 39744145
Research Findings: Early science skills predict later science achievement, and persistent achievement gaps in science appear as early as preschool. The current study compared the effectiveness of different instructional approaches...

Ren K, Grenell A, Gunderson E
J Exp Child Psychol . 2024 Oct; 249:106100. PMID: 39388772
To determine their academic strengths and weaknesses, students compare their own performance across domains (e.g., math vs. English), a process referred to as dimensional comparisons. For example, individuals' higher-scoring English...

Grenell A, Fyfe E
Q J Exp Psychol (Hove) . 2024 Aug; :17470218241280941. PMID: 39176996
Previous research has shown that naïve views of math and science concepts coexist with more formal views. The current study extended this finding to the domain of mathematical equivalence and...

Grenell A, Butts J, Levine S, Fyfe E
J Exp Child Psychol . 2024 Jul; 246:106003. PMID: 39043115
Metacognition is how people think about their own thinking, and it includes children's confidence in their problem-solving solutions. We assessed children's metacognition in two areas of mathematics that are often...

Ernst J, Grenell A, Carlson S
Int J Educ Res Open . 2022 Dec; 3. PMID: 36578863
The current study directly compared the magnitude of associations between executive function (EF) and math versus literacy and investigated whether they differed by age within the preschool years. Participants were...

Child Dev . 2022 Dec; 94(2):e103-e118. PMID: 36550641
This study examined repeating and growing pattern knowledge and their associations with procedural and conceptual arithmetic knowledge in a sample of U.S. children (N = 185; M  = 79.5 months;...

Distefano R, Grenell A, Palmer A, Houlihan K, Masten A, Carlson S
Cogn Dev . 2022 May; 58. PMID: 35573162
The link between self-regulation and academic achievement in young children is well-documented. However, few studies have examined the extent to which different aspects of self-regulation are more important for early...

Grenell A, Nelson L, Gardner B, Fyfe E
Cogn Dev . 2022 Apr; 62. PMID: 35392268
Children often struggle to solve mathematical equivalence problems correctly. The change-resistance theory offers an explanation for children's difficulties and suggests that some incorrect strategies represent the overgeneralization of children's narrow...

Grenell A, Carlson S
J Exp Child Psychol . 2021 Feb; 206:105079. PMID: 33610883
Executive function (EF) predicts children's academic achievement; however, less is known about the relation between EF and the actual learning process. The current study examined how aspects of the material...

Grenell A, White R, Prager E, Schaefer C, Kross E, Duckworth A, et al.
J Vis Exp . 2019 Mar; (145). PMID: 30882777
Self-distancing (i.e., creating mental distance between the self and a stimulus by adopting a less egocentric perspective) has been studied as a way to improve adolescents' and adults' emotion regulation....
