Lauren Sprague – Graduate Researcher

I’m broadly interested in the development of mathematical thought. My recent work has explored a variety of topics, including the effects of social framing on adults’ attention to proportional relationships, the relative salience of number and area in sets of objects, and the potential usefulness of sketching as a math problem solving strategy. You can find me on Twitter @spraguepsych and I can be reached by email at sprague [at] psy [dot] fsu [dot] edu.
