Mathematical flexibility involves the flexible, creative, meaningful, and innovative use of mathematical concepts, relations, representations, and strategies. In this introduction we discuss the most relevant theoretical, methodological, and educational considerations related to mathematical flexibility, which form the background of the empirical studies presented in the special issue. Collectively, these studies provide a broader understanding of the mathematical flexibility, its subcomponents, influences, and malleability.</p&gt;}, number={3}, journal={Journal of Numerical Cognition}, author={Hickendorff, Marian and McMullen, Jake and Verschaffel, Lieven}, year={2022}, month={Nov.}, pages={326-334} }
