Description
Jiali Mu and three colleagues release a brain imaging data set on children who trained in mental abacus calculation for five years, in a 2025 paper. Ninety-nine healthy children starting primary school were split at random: 53 trained in abacus-based mental calculation from grades one to five, and 46 served as controls. The team collected resting and structural brain scans after the first training year.
Math tests and psychological measures followed the children from grades two through five. The data are packaged in a standard format with quality reports and posted openly on the Science Data Bank. The authors offer the set as a rare window on how long-term training shapes the developing brain.
