Review of '<b>Working memory capacity, and selective attention in older children with mathematics learning disabilities </b>'

Thank you for inviting me to review the manuscript entitled “Working memory capacity, and selective attention in older children with mathematics learning disabilities”. Although I found it very interesting, well-written and methodologically sound, there are certain issues that need the author’s attention. My observations are given below:

The title is ok.

The abstract is written clearly. Some explanations may be added at the end of the abstract.

The introduction is good. The rationale of conducting this study needs improvement.

The method is also properly written. The materials used and the design employed fit with the objectives of the study.

The presentation of study results is good but the descriptions are shorter. I suggest adding some descriptions to make them more readable and comprehensive. The tables may be constructed following the guidelines of APA or as per the journal requirements.

Similarly, the discussion may be improved by adding more relevant explanations. This can be done with the help of more recent and pertinent research.

One important thing is to add study limitations, theoretical and practical implications along with dome directions for future researchers.

It is also suggested to use small sentences and only pertinent citations for readability and clarity.

 Language editing may help to make it more readable and comprehensive.

I congratulate the author for conducting a relevant piece of study having scientific and heuristic values.

With best regards,

Gyanesh Kumar Tiwari
