Description of Presentation:
Functional near-infrared imaging, which measures changes in blood flow, can investigate brain activity during reading and mathematics fluency tasks. Twelve university students participated in scanning sessions and interviews. Different activation levels were related to fluency levels, and fluency levels in mathematics and reading were comparable. We will discuss implications for learning.
Session Type: Poster Session
