- Only people who are right-handed can participate in the MRI scan.My vision is normal or corrected to normal, and I don't have hearing problems.I have had a head injury due to an accident or trauma.I have a history of mental health issues like schizophrenia or ADHD.My psychiatric medications have been stable.You should not have metal implants or devices in your body that could be affected by a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan.If you score lower than most people on a math test and have trouble with math in general, you may not be able to join the study.Children who score at or above the 25-35th percentile on math tests.My child is between 6 and 12 years old and in elementary school.You must have an IQ score higher than 70 on a specific test called the Wechsler Abbreviated Scale of Intelligence (WASI-II).
- Group 1: Integrative Symbolic Non-Symbolic (iSNS) Training
- Group 2: Active Comparator: Active Control Intervention (Working Memory Training)
- No Placebo-Only Group - All patients enrolled in this study will receive some form of active treatment.
- Screening: It may take up to 3 Weeks to process to see if you qualify in this trial.
- Treatment: The duration you will receive the treatment varies.
- Follow Ups: You may be asked to continue sharing information regarding the trial for 6 Months after you stop receiving the treatment.

Are participants over the age of 65 welcome to join this research initiative?
"This trial is open to all children aged 6-12."
What criteria must potential participants meet in order to join this research?
"This academic research project requires participants to be aged between 6 and 12, possessing a basic grasp of mathematics. A total of 180 students are required for the study."
Are there any openings available in this research initiative?
"According to the current information found on clinicaltrials.gov, this medical study is still in need of patient recruitment. It was initially posted on May 5th 2023 and was most recently updated two weeks later on May 15th 2023."
How many individuals are eligible to participate in this clinical trial?
"Affirmative. According to the medical records hosted on clinicaltrials.gov, this study is still recruiting patients since its initial post date of May 5th 2023 and subsequent edits thereafter. 180 individuals are needed for this trial from a single site."
What are the paramount goals of this experiment?
"This trial will assess cognitive changes over a baseline and post-intervention (after 8 weeks) period, chiefly by measuring drift rate during symbolic number comparison. Other metrics which will be observed include functional connectivity between ventrotemporal occipital cortex (VTOC), posterior parietal cortex (PPC), prefrontal cortex (PFC), medial temporal lobe (MTL), and basal ganglia regions during non-symbolic comparisons via gPPI beta values obtained from individual subject contrast maps for Near vs. Far contrasts; accuracy (% trials correct) on the symbolic addition task; as well as reaction time in milliseconds of children completing the same"
