Dyscalculia of development (DD)
Keywords:
Mathematical Cognition, Cognitive Neuroscience, Cognitive Psychology, Intervention StrategiesAbstract
The interest of the scientific field with respect to the study of the numerical cognition is relatively recent. Currently, evidence from cognitive neu ros cience and cognitive psychology are considered very significant contributions to understand the development of numerical competence and its difficulties and, based on this scientific evidence, to reduce the theoretical uncertainty in the design of psychopedagogical and pedagogical strategies.
