DD = Developmental Dyscalculia, TD = Typically Developing, STG = Superior Temporal Gyrus, MTG = Middle Frontal Gyrus, SMG = SupraMarginal Gyrus, IPS = IntraParietal Sulcus, MFG = Middle Frontal Gyrus. Regions significant at height threshold of p < .01, corrected for multiple comparisons at p < .01 which corresponds to cluster extent of 128 voxels after gray matter masking. Voxel size is 2 mm3.
