Quantifier processing can be dissociated from numerical processing: Evidence from semantic dementia patients
TLDR
The selective impairment of language in semantic dementia patients provides a way to examine the controversy over quantifier processing and concluded that quantifiers processing is associated with general semantic processing, not with numerical processing.About:

Neural dissociation of number from letter recognition and its relationship to parietal numerical processing
TL;DR: A neural double dissociation between letter and number recognition is demonstrated and higher-level numerical processing in parietal cortex may influence the neural organization of number processing in visual cortex, suggesting a functional relationship between the two regions.

The semantic system is involved in mathematical problem solving.
Xinlin Zhou,Xinlin Zhou,Mengyi Li,Leinian Li,Yiyun Zhang,Jiaxin Cui,Jiaxin Cui,Jie Liu,Chuansheng Chen +8 more
TL;DR: Using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), this study compared neural bases of mathematical problem solving and arithmetical computation and suggested that the semantic system in the brain supports mathematical problem solved.

Can preschool socioeconomic composition moderate relationships between family environment and Chinese children's early academic and social outcomes?
TL;DR: Wang et al. as mentioned in this paper examined how preschool socioeconomic status operates independently and moderates the family environment to determine Chinese children's early academic and social development, and they found that the optimal development of young children depends on the "fit" between their family's environmental characteristics and the preschool in which they enrolled.

Short‐term numerosity training promotes symbolic arithmetic in children with developmental dyscalculia: The mediating role of visual form perception
Dazhi Cheng,Dazhi Cheng,Qing Xiao,Jiaxin Cui,Jiaxin Cui,Jiaxin Cui,Chuansheng Chen,Jieying Zeng,Qian Chen,Xinlin Zhou,Xinlin Zhou +10 more
TL;DR: Short-term numerosity training enhances the arithmetic performance of DD children by improving their visual form perception, and mediation analysis showed that training-related improvement in arithmetic performance was fully mediated by the improvement inVisual form perception.

The neural circuits for arithmetic principles.
Jie Liu,Han Zhang,Chuansheng Chen,Hui Chen,Hui Chen,Jiaxin Cui,Jiaxin Cui,Xinlin Zhou,Xinlin Zhou +8 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that verbalized arithmetic principles engage a neural network that overlaps but is distinct from the networks for computation and language processing.

“Mini-mental state”: A practical method for grading the cognitive state of patients for the clinician
Marshal F. Folstein,Marshal F. Folstein,Susan E B Folstein,Susan E B Folstein,Paul R. McHugh,Paul R. McHugh +5 more
TL;DR: A simplified, scored form of the cognitive mental status examination, the “Mini-Mental State” (MMS) which includes eleven questions, requires only 5-10 min to administer, and is therefore practical to use serially and routinely.
A practical method for grading the cognitive state of patients for the clinician
TL;DR: The Mini-Mental State (MMS) as mentioned in this paper is a simplified version of the standard WAIS with eleven questions and requires only 5-10 min to administer, and is therefore practical to use serially and routinely.

A standardized set of 260 pictures: Norms for name agreement, image agreement, familiarity, and visual complexity.
TL;DR: In this article, a set of 260 pictures were used for experiments investigating differences and similarities in the processing of pictures and words, and the potential significance of each of the normative variables to a number of semantic and episodic memory tasks is discussed.

TL;DR: Consensus criteria for the three prototypic syndromes-frontotemporal dementia, progressive nonfluent aphasia, and semantic dementia-were developed by members of an international workshop on frontotem temporal lobar degeneration and ought to provide the foundation for research work into the neuropsychology, neuropathology, genetics, molecular biology, and epidemiology of these important clinical disorders.

Three parietal circuits for number processing
TL;DR: The horizontal segment of the intraparietal sulcus appears as a plausible candidate for domain specificity: It is systematically activated whenever numbers are manipulated, independently of number notation, and with increasing activation as the task puts greater emphasis on quantity processing.
