Young Children Intuitively Divide Before They Recognize the Division Symbol

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2022
Children bring intuitive arithmetic knowledge to the classroom before formal instruction in mathematics begins. For example, children can use their number sense to add, subtract, compare ratios, and even perform scaling operations that increase or ...

An Efficient Method for Comparing Numbers and Determining the Sign of a Number in RNS for Even Ranges

open access: yesComputation, 2022
Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE) permits processing information in the form of ciphertexts without decryption. It can ensure the security of information in common technologies used today, such as cloud computing, the Internet of Things, and machine ...

Developmental Change of Approximate Number System Acuity (Keenness) Reveals Delay

open access: yesJournal of Business and Social Review in Emerging Economies, 2021
The ability to process numbers approximately also called, approximate number system (ANS) is related and predictive of school mathematics performance. This system is functional since birth and continue to become more precise throughout the development ...

Numerosities and Other Magnitudes in the Brains: A Comparative View

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2021
The ability to represent, discriminate, and perform arithmetic operations on discrete quantities (numerosities) has been documented in a variety of species of different taxonomic groups, both vertebrates and invertebrates.

Stimulus frequency alone can account for the size effect in number comparison

open access: yesActa Psychologica, 2023
In a number comparison task, the size effect (i.e, smaller values are easier to compare than larger values) is usually attributed to a psychophysics-based representation.

A Domain-General Sense of Confidence in Children [PDF]

open access: yesOpen Mind, 2018
Our minds constantly evaluate the confidence in what we see, think, and remember. Previous work suggests that confidence is a domain-general currency in adulthood, unifying otherwise independent sensory and perceptual representations.

The Numeric Ebbinghaus Effect: Evidence for a Density-Area Mechanism of Numeric Estimation?

open access: yesJournal of Numerical Cognition, 2023
One model of numeric perception is a density-area mechanism: a process that estimates both density and area of an array, then multiplies them to create an estimate of number.

Aging and the number sense: preserved basic non-symbolic numerical processing and enhanced basic symbolic processing

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2015
Aging often leads to general cognitive decline in domains such as memory and attention. The effect of aging on numerical cognition, particularly on foundational numerical skills known as the Number Sense, is not well known.

The Interaction between Congruency and Numerical Ratio Effects in the Nonsymbolic Comparison Test

open access: yesBehavioral Sciences, 2023
The nonsymbolic comparison task is used to investigate the precision of the Approximate Number Sense, the ability to process discrete numerosity without counting and symbols.

Comparing Numerical Comparison Tasks: A Meta-Analysis of the Variability of the Weber Fraction Relative to the Generation Algorithm

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2018
Since more than 15 years, researchers have been expressing their interest in evaluating the Approximate Number System (ANS) and its potential influence on cognitive skills involving number processing, such as arithmetic.
