There is increasing interest in neurobiological methods for investigating the shared representation of action perception and production in early development. We explored the extent and regional specificity of EEG desynchronization in the infant alpha frequency range (6-9 Hz) during action observation and execution in 14-month-old infants.…

Mastering single-digit arithmetic during school years is commonly thought to depend upon an increasing reliance on verbally memorized facts.
