Developmental fronto-parietal shift of brain activation during mental arithmetic across the lifespan: A registered report protocol.

Arithmetic processing is represented in a fronto-parietal network of the brain. However, activation within this network undergoes a shift from domain-general cognitive processing in the frontal cortex towards domain-specific magnitude processing in the parietal cortex. This is at least what is known...
