Training the approximate number system improves math proficiency.
Humans and nonhuman animals share an approximate number system (ANS) that permits estimation and rough calculation of quantities without symbols. Recent studies show a correlation between the acuity of the ANS and performance in symbolic math throughout development and into adulthood, which suggests that the ANS may serve as a cognitive foundation for the uniquely human capacity for symbolic ma...
متن کاملWorking memory training improves cognitive function in VLBW preschoolers.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Preterm born children perform poorer than term peers on tests of attention and executive functions including working memory tests. Our aim was to evaluate if preterm born preschoolers with very low birth weight (VLBW) would benefit from a computerized working memory training program and if the training would have a generalizing effect on memory, learning, attention, beh...
متن کاملMath anxiety differentially affects WAIS-IV arithmetic performance in undergraduates.
Previous research has shown that math anxiety can influence the math performance level; however, to date, it is unknown whether math anxiety influences performance on working memory tasks during neuropsychological evaluation. In the present study, 172 undergraduate students completed measures of math achievement (the Math Computation subtest from the Wide Range Achievement Test-IV), math anxiet...
متن کاملA Short Executive Function Training Program Improves Preschoolers’ Working Memory
Cognitive training has been shown to improve executive functions (EFs) in middle childhood and adulthood. However, fewer studies have targeted the preschool years-a time when EFs undergo rapid development. The present study tested the effects of a short four session EF training program in 54 four-year-olds. The training group significantly improved their working memory from pre-training relativ...
متن کاملImaging arithmetic: physics U math > physics + math
For several real-world problems, signal processing approaches are most successful when they combine the insight offered by the physics underlying the problem with the mathematical framework and tools inherent in digital signal processing. Imaging systems are a particularly fertile ground for problems in this class because they deal specifically with the capture of physical scenes and with the r...
