Subclaims¶
Reading the evidence codes
q is the design tier, i the impact, n the sample, and the kind with its r
the rigour judged within that kind: what each code means.
This claim: no standardized effect is recorded in observations/ for it yet, so no benchmark reading is possible.
q3 i? During serial order short-term memory tasks, adults with developmental dyscalculia show reduced activation in the left intraparietal sulcus compared with controls. → Attout 2015

q3 · i? · associational · r?
fMRI study comparing adults with developmental dyscalculia and controls while they maintained serial order information. The article's title states the dysfunction is evidenced "from behavioral and neuroimaging data".
