US scientists have proved that the mathematical abilities of the child is completely dependent on his brain structure.
All the matter in the hippocampus. What it is, and the stronger its connection with other brain areas, the easier the person perceives and remembers the number.
Researchers University of Stenfordovskogo made this conclusion based on the results of the experiment.
The researchers compared MRI scans of the brain schoolchildren aged 8-9 years, with the results of tests in mathematics and IQ-tests. After that children over 2 months continued to study mathematics, and again underwent an MRI scan.
Best of all coped with the tasks of those children, the hippocampus of the brain which was great and that was more to do with other brain areas.
The researchers also noted that adults such interdependence between mathematical ability and hippocampus not observed.
