Thanks for the link. It seems like the bold claim is supported by a ton of data, as it should be. If this was what Boaler was offering, I think she would have a much stronger case. I skimmed some of the papers on Boaler's site as well, and they are almost completely unlike this one. They are full of anecdotes and quotes from students and very little data. To be fair, her study that is cited her later papers is not available on her web page so I have not read it.
