Nonabstract representation for number - evidence from event-related potentials.

21 Sep 2009 We investigated whether the mental representation of numbers was abstract amodal or modality-dependent by taking N270 as an index, the amplitude that represents the conflict between internal representation and perceptual input. Participants were ... Read more...

Neural correlates of arithmetic calculation strategies.

30 Aug 2009 Recent research into math cognition has identified areas of the brain that are involved in number processing (Dehaene, Piazza, Pinel, & Cohen, 2003) and complex problem solving (Anderson, 2007). Much of this research assumes that participants use a ... Read more...

[Contemporary cognitive theories about developmental dyscalculia]

30 Jul 2009 AIM: To analyze the current theories describing the cognitive mechanisms underlying developmental dyscalculia. DEVELOPMENT: The four most researched hypotheses concerning the cognitive deficits related to developmental dyscalculia, as well as ... Read more...
