NASCO: A New Method and Program to Generate Dot Arrays for Non-Symbolic Number Comparison Tasks

open access: yesJournal of Numerical Cognition, 2020
Basic numerical abilities are generally assumed to influence more complex cognitive processes involving numbers, such as mathematics. Yet measuring non-symbolic number abilities remains challenging due to the intrinsic correlation between numerical and ...

Measuring acuity of the Approximate Number System reliably and validly: The evaluation of an adaptive test procedure

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2013
Two studies investigated the reliability and predictive validity of commonly used measures and models of Approximate Number System acuity (ANS). Study 1 investigated reliability by both an empirical approach and a simulation of maximum obtainable ...

The Relationship of Reading Abilities With the Underlying Cognitive Skills of Math: A Dimensional Approach

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2021
Math and reading are related, and math problems are often accompanied by problems in reading. In the present study, we used a dimensional approach and we aimed to assess the relationship of reading and math with the cognitive skills assumed to underlie ...

Approximate Number System Task Performance: Associations With Domain-General and Domain-Specific Cognitive Skills in Young Children

open access: yesJournal of Numerical Cognition, 2018
We investigated the associations between young children’s domain-general executive functioning (EF) skills and domain-specific spontaneous focusing on number (SFON) tendencies and their performance on an approximate number system (ANS) task, paying ...

Development of magnitude processing in children with developmental dyscalculia: Space, time and number

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2014
Developmental dyscalculia (DD) is a learning disorder associated with impairments in a preverbal non-symbolic approximate number system (ANS) pertaining to areas in and around the intraparietal sulcus (IPS).

Approximate Arithmetic Training Improves Informal Math Performance in Low Achieving Preschoolers

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2018
Recent studies suggest that practice with approximate and non-symbolic arithmetic problems improves the math performance of adults, school aged children, and preschoolers. However, the relative effectiveness of approximate arithmetic training compared to

Area vs. Density: Influence of visual variables and cardinality knowledge in early number comparison

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2013
Current research in the number development field has focused in individual differences regarding the acuity of children’s Approximate Number System. The most common task to evaluate children’s acuity is through non-symbolic numerical comparison.
