ArtistThe experiences of those affected by dyscalculia often lead to problematic behavior. They try to avoid the problem. Statistically, children with dyscalculia are more likely to have psychological symptoms than children who are not affected. Overall, dyscalculia leads to a very high psychological burden for the children. On the one hand, affected children often withdraw and develop (test) anxiety, depressive symptoms and somatic complaints. Somatic complaints are physical symptoms such as headaches or stomach aches for which no organic cause can be found. On the other hand, the affected children may have attention deficits, delinquent (= deviating from the norm) and aggressive behavior due to persistent failure.
