Why do spatial abilities predict mathematical performance? [PDF]

, 2014
Spatial ability predicts performance in mathematics and eventual expertise in science, technology and engineering. Spatial skills have also been shown to rely on neuronal networks partially shared with mathematics.

Measuring Child Disadvantage: Comparing Multidimensional and Socioeconomic Approaches for Predicting Developmental Outcomes

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Robust measurement of disadvantage is essential to identifying and addressing inequities in children's development. We tested how a multidimensional framework of child disadvantage performed relative to a traditional socioeconomic position (SEP) approach to predict developmental outcomes.

Physical Reservoir Computing Using Microelectromechanical Systems

Advanced Physics Research, EarlyView.
Physical reservoir computing (PRC) transforms micro‐electro‐mechanical (MEMS) sensors into intelligent computing nodes by utilizing their intrinsic nonlinear dynamics and short‐term memory effects. This review surveys recent progress in MEMS‐based reservoir computing, covering its theoretical foundations, device architectures, and applications in ...

New techniques for old bones: Morphometric and diffeomorphometric analysis of the bony labyrinth of the Reilingen and Ehringsdorf Neandertals

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Neandertals are known to possess very distinctive traits in their bony labyrinth morphology, such as an inferiorly positioned posterior canal and a very low number of turns in the cochlea. Hence, the inner ear has been often used to assess the Neandertal status of fragmentary fossils.

Understanding the spacing of placodes in the eye: A comparative study across age and species

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The conjunctival placodes of the avian eye form in an intriguing and conserved sequence in a circular annulus around the cornea. These 13–16 placodes develop into papillae that are essential for inducing underlying intramembranous flat bones, known as scleral ossicles, which form an important part of the ocular skeleton.

Elliptic Fourier analysis as a tool for the taxonomic identification of isolated theropod pedal phalanges

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Studies of Upper Cretaceous deposits in North America have provided invaluable insights into the continental ecosystems of this time. Theropod (Saurischia, Dinosauria) pedal phalanges are commonplace in these deposits but can be difficult to identify at a finer taxonomic resolution.

Born this way: Does variation in perinatal limb bone morphology predict adult locomotor repertoire in primates?

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Primates show a high degree of locomotor diversity that engenders similar variance in limb bone cross‐sectional geometry and bending strength: leaping primates have stronger hindlimb bones whereas suspensory species have stronger forelimb bones.

Exploring the linguistic complexity of third-grade numerical literacy

Cognitive Research
Reading numbers aloud, a central aspect of numerical literacy, is a challenging skill to acquire, but the origins of this difficulty remain poorly understood. To investigate this matter, we examined the performance of 127 third- and fourth-grade children

Neuroscience and mathematics

, 2018
La matemática, además de ser provechosa, es extremadamente necesaria para poder interactuar con fluidez y eficacia en un mundo “matematizado”. La mayoría de las actividades cotidianas requieren de decisiones basadas en esta ciencia, como, por ejemplo, escoger la mejor opción de compra de un producto, entender los ...
