Developmental Dyscalculiaand the Brain*

Posted on by

Converging evidence is growing that DD is associated with different altera
tions in brain function and brain structure. Recent work in the field of DD has
examined the neural aspects of this learning disorder by means of contemporary
brain imaging techniques such as electrophysiology and magnetic resonance
imaging (MRI). Using these methods (see below), we are able to generate high
resolution anatomical images of our brains, examine fiber tracts, gain metabolic
insights, observe brain activation, or measure temporal processes while partici
pants are performing a numerical task.
