The prevalence of developmental dyscalculia in Brazilian public school system
The goal of the study was to assess public school children at the end of the first stage of elementary school. We used a protocol applied concurrently with a writing test in the form of an unexpected activity in 28 public schools; 2,893 children assessed,

A developmental model of number representation [PDF]
We delineate a developmental model of number representations. Notably, developmental dyscalculia (DD) is rarely associated with an all-or-none deficit in numerosity processing as would be expected if assuming abstract number representations.

Image of mathematics: A case study of two women's early mathematics experiences
Abstract People often view mathematics as abstract, cold, and irrelevant to real life, and their school experiences likely influence such views. In this case study, we investigated the mathematics experiences of two women who participated in an afterschool girls‐only STEM club 30 years ago when they were in fifth and sixth grades.

The Changes Over 15 Years Within a Pediatric Chronic Pain Service
ABSTRACT How do we know if a service is working? How has the presentation and management of children with chronic pain changed over the last fifteen years and what demonstrates adherence to changing guidelines? This audit of a large tertiary pediatric chronic pain service assessed relevant multivariate data gathered over the last 15 years to try to ...

Temporal Abnormalities in Children With Developmental Dyscalculia
Recent imaging studies have associated Developmental dyscalculia (DD) to structural and functional alterations corresponding Parietal and the Prefrontal cortex (PFC). Since these areas were shown also to be involved in timing abilities, we hypothesized that time processing is abnormal in DD.

Abstract Background Previous research has shown that testing differs significantly from other classroom activities and is associated with heightened negative emotions and lower levels of positive emotions. However, relatively little is known about students' emotions surrounding testing, particularly in higher‐stakes assessment settings. Aims This study

Separating math from anxiety: The role of inhibitory mechanisms. [PDF]
Deficits in executive functions have been hypothesized and documented for children with severe mathematics anxiety (MA) or developmental dyscalculia, but the role of inhibition-related processes has not been specifically explored.
