    "abstract": "Which cognitive skills predict childrens math ability? Three types of cognitive predictors were identified in the Pathwaysto Mathematics model (LeFevre et al., 2010; Sowinski et al., 2015): quantitative, working memory, and linguistic skills.In the current research, we evaluated the Pathways to Mathematics model concurrently, in Kindergarten (N = 159 children;87 girls; mean age = 5 years, 10 months), as the first testing point in a larger longitudinal study. Quantitative skills wereassessed using subitizing and both non-symbolic and symbolic number comparison. Working memory skills were assessedusing phonological and visuo-spatial span tasks. Linguistic skills were assessed using receptive vocabulary and phono-logical awareness tasks. Consistent with the model, all three factors (quantitative, working memory, and linguistic skills)accounted for significant unique variance in mathematics performance (betas of .21, .28 & .31, respectively, controllingfor age in months). Jointly the factors accounted for 41% of variance in mathematics performance.",
