Decreases in problem-size effect from age 8 to adulthood were associated with quantitative rather than qualitative changes in brain activity, at least for very small problems. This is very consistent with the automatized counting model: doi.org/10.1016/j.co... (4/4)

In a large (n=128) fMRI study in children and adults, we test this idea by measuring neural changes associated with age-related reductions in a hallmark of mental addition, the problem-size effect. We used a novel “silent” production task to keep the task ecological and minimize head movement. (3/4)
