This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing theresources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject andinvestigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source,and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed isfor the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator.Research has shown that the ages of 7 through 9 is a critical period for the cognitive development of mathematical skills. Children who fail to properly acquire basic arithmetic skills are more likely to experience difficulties later in their education, especially in the realm of mathematics. Therefore, our current study aims to capture the neural bases of arithmetic skill acquisition, particularly as children learn basic addition facts (i.e., a + b = c). We proposed a longitudinal study to capture the behavioral and neural correlates of this learning process in children who are both typically developing in mathematics, and in children who are experiencing delays in mathematical skill development.
