Data and Code: Cortical representations of symbolic and non-symbolic quantity expand but become estranged with learning and development

Note Here we provide preprocessed data and analysis code used in "Cortical representations of symbolic and non-symbolic quantity expand but become estranged with learning and development". Because of anonymization concerns within the framework of EU privacy regulations (GDPR), we cannot provide raw MRI data. Therefore, the fMRI data consists of individual preprocessed volumes, normalized into the MNI template, and averaged across five TRs for each block (see paper for details about the preprocessing pipeline). The analysis code requires Python version 3.8.8, Nilearn version 0.8.1, and Scikit-learn version 0.24.1. If you have any questions, please send an email to nakai.tomoya [at] neuro.mimoza.jp.
