What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Cognition
- Statistics
- Neuroscience
His primary areas of study are Cognition, Developmental psychology, Cognitive psychology, Association and Arithmetic.
His work is dedicated to discovering how Cognition, Teaching method are connected with Compensation, Age differences, Mathematical achievement, Contrast and Semitic languages and other disciplines.
His study in Developmental psychology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Short-term memory and Developmental Dyscalculia, Dyscalculia.
In his study, Empirical research, Educational research, Engineering ethics, Field and Psycholinguistics is strongly linked to Cognitive neuroscience, which falls under the umbrella field of Cognitive psychology.
His Association research integrates issues from Neurophysiology, Approximate number system, Achievement test and Electroencephalography.
Bert De Smedt is interested in Subtraction, which is a branch of Arithmetic.
His most cited work include:
- How do symbolic and non-symbolic numerical magnitude processing skills relate to individual differences in children's mathematical skills? A review of evidence from brain and behavior (393 citations)
- Associations of non‐symbolic and symbolic numerical magnitude processing with mathematical competence: a meta‐analysis (312 citations)
- The Predictive Value of Numerical Magnitude Comparison for Individual Differences in Mathematics Achievement. (293 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
His scientific interests lie mostly in Arithmetic, Developmental psychology, Cognitive psychology, Cognition and Subtraction.
Bert De Smedt has included themes like Working memory and Brain activity and meditation in his Arithmetic study.
His Developmental psychology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Association, Developmental Dyscalculia, Dyscalculia, Magnitude processing and Numeracy.
His Association research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Mathematics education and Arabic numerals.
His Dyscalculia study frequently draws parallels with other fields, such as Neuroimaging.
As part of the same scientific family, Bert De Smedt usually focuses on Cognitive psychology, concentrating on Dyslexia and intersecting with Phonological awareness.
He most often published in these fields:
- Arithmetic (31.72%)
- Developmental psychology (22.33%)
- Cognitive psychology (22.01%)

- Cognition (18.12%)
- Arithmetic (31.72%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
Bert De Smedt focuses on Developmental psychology, Cognition, Arithmetic, Association and Mathematical development.
His work on Mathematical ability as part of general Developmental psychology study is frequently connected to Gender equality, therefore bridging the gap between diverse disciplines of science and establishing a new relationship between them.
He has researched Cognition in several fields, including Contrast and Subtraction.
His Arithmetic study incorporates themes from Brain activity and meditation, Metacognition, Functional magnetic resonance imaging and Fluency.
His Association research incorporates themes from Statistical learning and Early reading.
His Mathematical development research also works with subjects such as
- Arabic numerals together with Competence and Flemish,
- Numerosity adaptation effect and related Cognitive psychology, Task analysis, Imitation and Reading,
- Psychological intervention which connect with Empirical research and Physical medicine and rehabilitation.
Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Associations of Number Line Estimation With Mathematical Competence: A Meta-analysis. (61 citations)
- Multi-method brain imaging reveals impaired representations of number as well as altered connectivity in adults with dyscalculia (19 citations)
- Frequency of Home Numeracy Activities Is Differentially Related to Basic Number Processing and Calculation Skills in Kindergartners. (18 citations)
