Neural dissociation of number from letter recognition and its relationship to parietal numerical processing

J Park, A Hebrank, TA Polk, DC Park - Journal of Cognitive …, 2012 - direct.mit.edu
The visual recognition of letters dissociates from the recognition of numbers at both the
behavioral and neural level. In this article, using fMRI, we investigate whether the visual …

Numerical magnitude in the human parietal lobe: Tests of representational generality and domain specificity

M Shuman, N Kanwisher - Neuron, 2004 - cell.com
