Abstract
The study examined the relationships between math anxiety and the neural correlates of cognitive control. Results indicated that higher math anxiety was associated with shorter reaction times in a cognitive control task as well as less attention allocation to non-math stimulus and stronger automatic error detection in a numerical task.
