BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

The prompt discusses information-processing theorists using board games to boost children's numerical abilities, citing experiments with Chutes and Ladders and a custom game. This sets the stage for evaluating what the findings suggest about learning through numerical games.
Option A: 'only games that teach number names help children's numerical knowledge.' This claim is too narrow and unsupported by the summary. The researchers focused on numerical games in general, not exclusively on number-name instruction, so this overstates a limitation and is unlikely to be the intended takeaway.
Option B: 'playing numerical board games can help improve young children's numerical knowledge.' This aligns with the described finding: engaging with numerical board games appears to bolster numerical concepts and abilities in young children, which matches the general conclusion drawn from such studies.
Option C: 'children are unable to learn numerical concepts from games.' This is contradicted by the reported result of the study, which demonstrates learning via gameplay, so labeling learning as impossible is incorrect and defies the evidence presented.
Option D: 'children's numerical knowledge can be increased only if they play games with an adult..' This statement introduces a condition (with an adult) that is not specified in the description. The basic finding is about the efficacy of numerical board games themselves, not about requiring adult facilitation, making this option overly restrictive and unsupported by the given information.
Overall, the options explore different claims about learning from games. The second option best matches the reported outcome by describing that engaging with numerical board games can enhance young children's numerical knowledge, while the other options introduce unsupported qualifiers or outright contradictions to the study’s implication.
