The maturation of mathematical reasoning skills is a hallmark of human cognitive and academic development. Cognitive, developmental and educational psychologists have provided valuable insights into the complex and dynamic developmental changes in mathematical reasoning skills during childhood. The specific goal of our project is to investigate the development of mental arithmetic skills using a cognitive and systems neuroscience approach. This work has the potential to have broad impact on theories in cognitive neuroscience, brain and cognitive development and cognitive psychology. Findings from our proposed studies will inform the development of academic and educational programs for teaching mathematical and symbolic reasoning to children.

数学推理能力的成熟是人类认知和学术发展的标志。认知，发展和教育心理学家提供了宝贵的见解复杂和动态的发展变化的数学推理技能在童年时期。我们的项目的具体目标是使用认知和系统神经科学的方法来研究心算技能的发展。这项工作有可能对认知神经科学，大脑和认知发展以及认知心理学的理论产生广泛的影响。我们提出的研究结果将为儿童数学和符号推理教学的学术和教育计划的发展提供信息。
