الوصف: We investigate the role of external inscriptions, particularly those of a spatial or visual nature, in the solution of probability word problems. We define a taxonomy of external visual representations used in probability problem solving that includes pictures, spatial reorganization of the given information, outcome listings, contingency tables, Venn diagrams, trees, and novel graphical representations. We also propose a process model for probability problem solving (PPS) and use it as a framework to better understand how and why external visual representations are used. In a study of 34 novice probability problem solvers, participants worked to solve six probability word problems covering six probability subtopics. Both written and verbal structured interview protocols were analyzed to investigate when and how external visual representations are spontaneously used by problem solvers. Analyses of the coded transcripts showed that participants' probability problem-solving efforts move through the stages o...
