Time reading skills are central for the management of personal and professional life. However, little is known about the differential influence of basic numerical abilities on analog and digital time reading in general and in middle and secondary school students in particular. The present study investigated the influence of basic numerical skills separately for analog and digital time reading in = 709 students from 5th to 8th grade. The present findings suggest that the development of time reading skills is not completed by the end of primary school. Results indicated that aspects of and predicted analog time reading significantly over and above the influence of age. Furthermore, results showed that , , and were significant predictors of digital time reading beyond general cognitive ability and sex. To the best of our knowledge, the present study is the first to show differential effects of basic numerical abilities on analog and digital time reading skills in middle and secondary school students. As time readings skills are crucial for everyday life, these results are highly relevant to better understand basic numerical processes underlying time reading.
时间阅读技能是管理个人和职业生活的核心。然而，对于基本数值能力对一般和中学特别是模拟和数字时间阅读的差异影响知之甚少。本研究调查了基本数值技能对 709 名 5 至 8 年级学生模拟和数字时间阅读的分别影响。本研究结果表明，时间阅读技能的发展在小学结束时并未完成。结果表明，和 预测模拟时间阅读的方面显著超过年龄的影响。此外，结果表明，在一般认知能力和性别之外，、和 是数字时间阅读的重要预测指标。据我们所知，本研究首次表明基本数值能力对中学模拟和数字时间阅读技能的差异影响。由于时间阅读技能对日常生活至关重要，因此这些结果对于更好地理解时间阅读背后的基本数值过程具有重要意义。
