Impaired Arithmetic Fact Retrieval in an Adult with Developmental Dyscalculia: Evidence from Behavioral and Functional Brain Imaging Data [PDF]
Developmental dyscalculia (DD) is a developmental disorder characterized by arithmetic difficulties. Recently, it has been suggested that the neural networks supporting procedure-based calculation (e.g., in subtraction) and left-hemispheric verbal ...

Functional hyperconnectivity vanishes in children with developmental dyscalculia after numerical intervention [PDF]
Developmental dyscalculia (DD) is a developmental learning disability associated with deficits in processing numerical and mathematical information. Although behavioural training can reduce these deficits, it is unclear which neuronal resources show a ...

Persistent Differences in Brain Structure in Developmental Dyscalculia: A Longitudinal Morphometry Study [PDF]
Developmental dyscalculia (DD) is a learning disability affecting the acquisition of numerical-arithmetical skills. Affected people show persistent deficits in number processing, which are associated with aberrant brain activation and structure.

Excessive visual crowding effects in developmental dyscalculia. [PDF]
AbstractVisual crowding refers to the inability to identify objects when surrounded by other similar items. Crowding-like mechanisms are thought to play a key role in numerical perception by determining the sensory mechanisms through which ensembles are perceived.

Associative Cognitive Factors of Math Problems in Students Diagnosed With Developmental Dyscalculia [PDF]
The Dutch protocol, ‘Dyscalculia: Diagnostics for Behavioral Professionals’ (DDBP protocol; Van Luit et al., 2014), describes how behavioral experts can examine whether a student has developmental dyscalculia (DD), based on three criteria: severity ...

Persistent Effects of Musical Training on Mathematical Skills of Children With Developmental Dyscalculia [PDF]
Musical training (MT) is perceived as a multi-sensory program that simultaneously integrates visual, aural, oral, and kinesthetic senses. Furthermore, MT stimulates cognitive functions in a ludic way instead of tapping straight into the traditional ...
