Title

Neurocognitive aspects of mathematical achievement in children

Creator

Description

Neurocognitive factors, including information integration and executive functioning, contribute significantly to a child's early success in math achievement, even though the significance of home and school environments cannot be ignored. There are only a few studies that have systematically examined how information integration and executive function skills impact different aspects of learning math and math achievement. Using a comprehensive tool such as the brain-Based Intelligence Test (BBIT), a brain-based comprehensive approach to the understanding of cognition, for the assessment of information integration and executive function skills can have significant implications for mathematical education and remediation (brain plasticity).
