Although evidence suggests that individual differences in reading and mathematics skills are
correlated, this relationship has typically only been studied in relation to word decoding or global
measures of reading. It is unclear whether mathematics is differentially related to word decoding
and reading comprehension. The current study examined these relationships at both a phenotypic
and etiological level in a population-based cohort of 5162 twin pairs at age 12. Multivariate
genetic analyses of latent phenotypic factors of mathematics, word decoding and reading
comprehension revealed substantial genetic and shared environmental correlations among all three
domains. However, the phenotypic and genetic correlations between mathematics and reading
comprehension were significantly greater than between mathematics and word decoding.
Independent of mathematics, there was also evidence for genetic and nonshared environmental
links between word decoding and reading comprehension. These findings indicate that word
decoding and reading comprehension have partly distinct relationships with mathematics in the
middle school years.

The present study examined the correlation between academic performance in reading
and academic performance in mathematics at the primary level. The data included 95 student
performances from grades two, three, four, and five. The reading performance was based on
three assessment components which included comprehension, fluency, and vocabulary. The
mathematics performance was based on summative assessments conducted at intervals during
the 2011-2012 academic year as well as the results from the STAR test. Results indicated that a
correlation did exist between reading and mathematics performance at the early elementary level
when including grades two through five. Examining each grade level individually yielded similar
results. A correlation did not exist at second grade between reading and mathematics
performance; however, a correlation was found at grades three, four, and five. The correlation
also appeared to grow in strength at higher grade levels.

 4.10 TENSION SPLINES Splines are a wonderful tool for approximation, but they can still exhibit some poor behavior. Consider the data set plotted in Fig. 4.25. Obviously, this represents a function with a severe jump near x — 0.5, but there is no sign of oscillatory behavior. However, a B-spline representation of this data (Fig. 4.26) shows small wiggles on either side of a sharp front. This is fundamentally an artifact of the steep gradient in the data, but in other contexts a spline fit can display behavior that does not match the "sense" of the data. One way to avoid the problem is the notion of a taut spline or tension spline, an idea that appears to have been first published by Schweikert [17], but which also owes a lot to the work of A. K. Cline [4]; we relied heavily on a short paper of Marusic and Rogina [12] in our presentation here. Imagine that the curve in Fig 4.26 is a piece of string that is constrained to pass through small loops at the data points. If we were...
