Domain-general and domain-specific cognitive correlates of developmental dyscalculia: a systematic review of the last two decades’ literature

Learning Objectives:

1. Describe the role of domain-general factors, especially executive function (working memory, inhibitory control, and cognitive shifting), in understanding cognitive deficits in developmental dyscalculia.

2. Describe the role of domain-specific factors (number sense ability, especially approximate and symbolic number abilities) in understanding cognitive deficits in developmental dyscalculia.

Optimizing neurodevelopmental outcomes following fetal diagnosis of congenital heart disease: a call for primary prevention neuropsychology

Learning Objectives:

1. Describe current practice with respect to diagnosis and management of congenital heart disease (CHD) and its effects on neurodevelopment.

2. Explain how neuropsychologists may help optimize neurodevelopment for children with complex CHD as early as the fetal period, in concept and practice.
