Only recently has the complex anatomo-functional system underlying numerical cognition
become accessible to evaluation in the living brain. We identified 27 studies investigating …

In this review we examine white matter tracts that may support numerical and mathematical
abilities and whether abnormalities in these pathways are associated with deficits in …

What happens in our brains when we compose a melody, write a poem, paint a picture, or
choreograph a dance sequence? How is this different from what occurs in the brain when …

Scores on intelligence tests are strongly predictive of various important life outcomes.

White matter tissue properties are known to correlate with performance across domains
ranging from reading to math, to executive function. Here, we use a longitudinal intervention …

In this chapter we review the history of the openness/intellect construct and summarize the
empirical findings regarding the relation of creativity to the openness/intellect trait domain as …

The brain has multiple functions, and its structures are very closely related to one another.
Thus, the brain areas associated with stress, emotion, and intelligence are closely …

Gifted children learn more rapidly and effectively than others, presumably due to
neurophysiological differences that affect efficiency in neuronal communication. Identifying …

The scientific study of the biological basis of intelligence has been contributing to our
understanding of individual differences in cognitive abilities for decades. In particular, the …

Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) studies of cannabis users report alterations in brain white
matter microstructure, primarily based on cross-sectional research, and etiology of the …
