Objective: Two cognitive components such as number comprehension and active memory are known to be effective factors for the development of math skills and the lack of both components can lead to the occurrence of math learning disorders in children. Therefore, the purpose of this research is to analyze number comprehension on According to the active memory profile in students with math learning disorder.
Methods: The method of the current research was a correlational description. The statistical population of the present study was all male students with math learning disorder, first grade, referring to learning disorder centers in the academic year of 2020 – 2021 and 50 of them were selected by available sampling method. Pickering and Godercole (20001) answered the questions of Jordan et al.'s (2008) and working memory test set for children (Hafbek). After data collection, their analysis was done with Spss 20 software and with Pearson's correlation matrix and multiple regression methods.
Results: The findings of the present study showed that among the components of active memory, central executive and visual-spatial plane, there is a positive and significant correlation with one of the components of number understanding, including operations (P<0.01). Also, the results of multiple regression indicated that among the components of working memory, only the visual-spatial plane can predict one of the components of number understanding, including operations (P<0.02).
Conclusion: According to the confirmation of the significant role of working memory in children's understanding of numbers, it is possible to teach skills related to the components of working memory, especially the visual-spatial screen in learning disability centers to improve number understanding.
