Relation between activity during arithmetic problem solving and visuo-spatial working memory abilities in a priori IPS and SFS ROIs. Full correlations represent associations between brain activation to Complex arithmetic problems and visuo-spatial working memory scores (Block Recall). Partial correlations were computed after removing the effects of phonological loop (Digit Recall) and central executive working memory (Counting Recall, Backwards Digit Recall).
