Cognitive correlates of math abilities in autism spectrum disorder.

The purpose of the current study was to investigate the contribution of different cognitive processes to specific math abilities in students with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and typically developing (TD) students. The study involved a group of students with ASD without intellectual disabilities (n = 26) and a group with TD students (n = 52). The two groups aged from six to 20 years old and were matched for age, sex ratio and visuospatial reasoning.

Math abilities in autism spectrum disorder: A meta-analysis.

Background: Studies focusing on math abilities in autism spectrum disorder (ASD) are limited and often provide inconsistent results.

Aim: This meta-analysis was conducted to investigate math abilities in people with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) compared to typically developing (TD) participants.

Methods And Procedures: According with PRISMA guidelines, a systematic search strategy was adopted.

Inhibitory Control in Autism Spectrum Disorders: Meta-analyses on Indirect and Direct Measures.

This manuscript aimed to advance our understanding of inhibitory control (IC) in autism spectrum disorders (ASD), adopting a meta-analytic multilevel approach. The first meta-analysis, on 164 studies adopting direct measures, indicated a significant small-to-medium (g = 0.484) deficit in the group with ASD (n = 5140) compared with controls (n = 6075).

The relationship of working memory and inhibition with different number knowledge skills in preschool children.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the contribution of specific executive function (EF) components to different number knowledge skills. A sample of 143 children attending the last year of preschool educational services (M = 65.01 months, SD = 3.
