I am interested in others' experiences with dyscalculia. Is it your experience that it is stand-alone, or occurs more commonly in conjunction with dyslexia or other learning disabilities? My own experience is that dyscalculia is generally the only disability in evidence with the individual, and is generally referred to as 'Math Anxiety'. I have had limited success in making headway with it.

I am wondering if, since Gardner introduced the notion of mulitple intelligences in the mid-80's, if there has been brain research indicating what the most common tripartite arrangements are, what the least common are, and why this is so in each case? In my own experience I routinely run into verbal/linguistic-visual/spatial-and musical/rhythmic learners. In second place are visual/spatial-musical/rhythmic and a third dominant, which can be any of the others, but is most often logical-mathematical.
