This system is being propagated in Singapore , South Korea , Thailand , Malaysia and Japan . Mental calculation is said to improve mental capability, increases speed of response, memory power and concentration power. Many veteran and prolific abacus users in China, Japan, South Korea and others who use the abacus daily, naturally tend to not use the abacus anymore but perform calculations by visualizing the abacus. This was verified when the Right Brain measured heightened EEG activity when calculating and compared with non-veterans who were using the abacus to perform calculations. The standard abacus can be used to perform addition, subtraction, division and multiplication; the abacus can also be used to extract square-roots and cubic roots.
