    Sammanfattning : The purpose of the present thesis was to test and contrast hypotheses about the cognitive conditions that support the development of mathematical learning disability (MLD). Following hypotheses were tested in the thesis: a) domain general deficit, the deficit is primarily located in the domain general systems such as the working memory, b) number sense deficit, the deficit is located in the innate approximate number system (ANS), c) numerosity coding deficit, the deficit is located to a exact number representation system, d) access deficit, the deficit is in the mapping between symbols and the innate number representational system (e.

    Sammanfattning : Developmental dyscalculia (DD) is a learning disability that is characterized by severe difficulties with acquiring age-appropriate mathematical skills that cannot be attributed to insufficient education, language skills, or motivation. The prevalence rate is estimated at 3-6%, meaning that a substantial portion of the population struggles to learn mathematics to such a large degree that it affects overall well-being and academic prospects.

  4. 3. Executive functions and ERP Biomarkers in children and adolescents with ADHD and Autism

    Författare :Linda Angelica Häger; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Supplementary biomarkers; Child psychiatry; ADHD; Autism; Executive function; Neuropsychological tests; Event related potentials; EEG;

    Sammanfattning : Executive Functions (EF) refers to skills that help us initiate, organize and evaluate activities. Problems with EF are associated with neurodevelopmental disorders such as Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and autism spectrum disorder (ASD). LÄS MER
