Numerosities and Other Magnitudes in the Brains: A Comparative View
Frontiers 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
Acta 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.

, 2021 There is evidence that early variations in the development of an approximate number system (ANS) and symbolic number understanding are both influences on the later development of formal arithmetic skills.

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

Developmental changes in the association between approximate number representations and addition skills in elementary school children [PDF]
, 2013 The approximate number system (ANS) is assumingly related to mathematical learning but evidence supporting this assumption is mixed. The inconsistent findings might be attributed to the fact that different measures have been used to assess the ANS and ...

The effect of language on the approximate number system.
, 2022 The approximate number system (ANS) underlies our rapid and intuitive sense for quantities (Feigenson et al., 2004). The ANS, tapped into when performing rapid number judgement (DeWind et al., 2015), is affected by the properties of visual stimuli (e.g., object density and grouping).

Preschoolers' precision of the approximate number system predicts later school mathematics performance. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 The Approximate Number System (ANS) is a primitive mental system of nonverbal representations that supports an intuitive sense of number in human adults, children, infants, and other animal species.
