Neuropsychology
Findings suggest a dissociation in mathematical problem solving between reasoning, mediated by frontal cortex, and text processing, mediated by temporal cortex. ...
Participants solved 3 types of problems: 2-operation problems requiring mathematical reasoning and text processing, 1-operation problems requiring text processing but minimal mathematical reasoning, and ...
From this perspective, analyzing the initial 10 s in these different problem types may isolate only neural substrates involved in text processing rather than neural substrates involved in mathematical ...
