Recruitment of occipital cortex by arithmetic processing follows computational bias in early blind

Recruitment of occipital cortex by arithmetic processing follows computational bias in early blind

Abstract Arithmetic reasoning activates the occipital cortex of early blind people (EB). This activation of visual areas may reflect functional flexibility or the intrinsic computational role of specific occipital regions. We contrasted these competing hypotheses by characterizing the brain activity of EB and sighted participants while performing subtraction, multiplication and …
