Journal ArticleDOI
Working memory deficit in children with mathematical difficulties: A general or specific deficit?
Ulf Andersson,Björn Lyxell +1 more
TL;DR: Findings provide support for the assumption that children with MDs have a central executive deficit connected to concurrent processing and storage of numerical and visual information.
Journal ArticleDOI
Working memory as a predictor of written arithmetical skills in children: the importance of central executive functions
TL;DR: The contribution of the phonological loop and the central executive indicates that children aged 9-10 years primarily utilize verbal coding strategies during written arithmetical performance.
Journal ArticleDOI
Skill Development in Different Components of Arithmetic and Basic Cognitive Functions: Findings From a 3-Year Longitudinal Study of Children With Different Types of Learning Difficulties
TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the cognitive and cognitive skills of children with mathematical difficulties (MD-only), with comorbid reading difficulties, with reading difficulties only, and normally achieving children were examined at 3 points from Grades 3-4 to Grades 5-6 (age range, 9-13 years).
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of Acyclovir on Infectious Mononucleosis: A Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Study
Jan Andersson,Sven Britton,Ingemar Ernberg,Ulf Andersson,Werner Henle,Birgit Sköldenberg,Åke Tisell +6 more
TL;DR: There were no significant differences in individual clinical symptoms or in laboratory parameters between the two groups; however, when data concerning duration of fever, weight loss, tonsillar swelling, pharyngitis, and self-assessment by the patient were combined, a significant effect of treatment with acyclovir was evident.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mathematical competencies in children with different types of learning difficulties.
TL;DR: The mathematical performance of 182 third and fourth graders in 8 different areas of mathematics was examined in this article, where the children belonged to four achievement groups: children with mathematic difficulties (MD only), children with both mathematic and reading difficulties, children with reading difficulties (RD only), and normally achieving children (control group).
