Neurální koreláty aritmetických funkcí / Neural corelates of arithmetic functions

This present thesis is focused on the description of relation between brain activity while solving approximate arithmetic tasks and results in Stanford Binet's intelligence test in preschool children. The influence of N1, N2 and P2p components and late posterior components on non-symbolic numerical processing has been validated. Furthermore, it is the influence of maturation with each measured component and also the difference in their amplitude and their commencement after the stimulus presentation that must be pointed out. Our research data show that it is the very amplitude and its commencement that can be used as a potential intelligence indicator in preschool children. Both these components are related to cognitive processing time which has repeatedly proved to correlate with G intelligence factor. It is especially N2 component, which is connected with inhibitiory control of executive functions, that seems to have the potential for this diagnosis. Generally, it is P2p component that is given major attention. Nevertheless, in our research, this component has shown inconsistent results with respect to the amplitude which can be attributed to a low variance of our children's intelligence.
