Examining pitch and numerical magnitude processing in congenital amusia: A quasi-experimental pilot study

Abstract: The relationship between meter and nonsymbolic numerical discrimination could indicate a general ratio processing deficit. The finding of preserved nonsymbolic numerical magnitude discrimination and mental number line representations, with impaired symbolic number processing, in individuals with congenital amusia indicates that (a) pitch height and numerical magnitude processing may not share common neural representations, and (b) in addition to pitch processing, individuals with amusia may present a deficit i… Show more

“…They developed a screening tool for primary school from eight-to-eleven-year-old students at risk of mathematical difficulties (Moura et al, 2015), an especially important achievement in a very large and diverse country. Using that screening tool, evidence of shared mechanisms in reading and writing both words and numbers (Lopes- Silva et al, 2016) was found, indicating that phonemic awareness systematically predicts numerical and word learning abilities. The research was carried out with 172 students from the second to fourth grades.…”

“…Desarrollaron una herramienta de evaluación para alumnos que asisten a la escuela primaria de ocho a 11 años con riesgo de tener dificultades con las matemáticas (Moura et al, 2015), un logro especialmente importante en un país muy grande y diverso. Utilizando esa herramienta de evaluación se hallaron evidencias de mecanismos compartidos en lectura y escritura, tanto palabras como números (Lopes- Silva et al, 2016). Esto indicó que la conciencia fonémica predice sistemáticamente las habilidades para el aprendizaje de números y palabras.…”
