Finger counting training enhances addition performance in kindergarteners. [PDF]
Child DevOur study on 328 five‐ to six‐year‐old kindergarteners (mainly White European living in France, 152 girls) shows that children who do not count on their fingers and undergo finger counting training exhibit drastic improvement in their addition skills ...

The Origin of Mathematics and Number Sense in the Cerebellum: with Implications for Finger Counting and Dyscalculia. [PDF]
Cerebellum Ataxias, 2017 Mathematicians and scientists have struggled to adequately describe the ultimate foundations of mathematics. Nobel laureates Albert Einstein and Eugene Wigner were perplexed by this issue, with Wigner concluding that the workability of mathematics in the

Finger counting and numerical cognition [PDF]
Frontiers in Psychology, 2012 Following a recent surge of interest in finger-based number knowledge, we invited empirical and conceptual contributions to assess the feasibility of a Research Topic on this issue. We received a considerable number of submissions, many of which were further improved by constructive and interactive peer-review and ultimately appeared as part of the ...

Correcting Finger Counting to Snellen Acuity. [PDF]
Neuroophthalmology, 2016 In this paper, the authors describe an online tool with which to convert and thus quantify count finger measurements of visual acuity into Snellen equivalents. It is hoped that this tool allows for the re-interpretation of retrospectively collected data that provide visual acuity in terms of qualitative count finger measurements.

Is finger-counting necessary for the development of arithmetic abilities? [PDF]
Frontiers in Psychology, 2011 In the literature on numerical cognition, it is generally assumed that fingers play a functional role in the development of a mature counting system (Gelman and Gallistel, 1978; Fuson et al., 1982; Fuson, 1988; Butterworth, 1999a,b, 2005). Indeed, fingers have been assumed to contribute to: (1) giving an iconic representation of numbers (Fayol and ...

Exploring the interactions among SNARC effect, finger counting direction and embodied cognition. [PDF]
PeerJ, 2020 The Spatial Numerical Association of Response Code (SNARC) is the preferential association between smaller/larger magnitudes and left/right side, respectively. Some evidence suggest a link between SNARC and a left-to-right finger counting habit. We asked

Finger-Counting-Based Gesture Recognition within Cars Using Impulse Radar with Convolutional Neural Network. [PDF]
Sensors (Basel), 2019 The diversion of a driver’s attention from driving can be catastrophic. Given that conventional button- and touch-based interfaces may distract the driver, developing novel distraction-free interfaces for the various devices present in cars has becomes ...

A large-scale survey on finger counting routines, their temporal stability and flexibility in educated adults. [PDF]
PeerJ, 2018 A strong link between bodily activity and number processing has been established in recent years. Although numerous observations indicate that adults use finger counting (FC) in various contexts of everyday life for different purposes, existing knowledge

Journal of Numerical Cognition, 2016 Recent work in numerical cognition has shown-that number magnitude is not entirely abstract, and at least partly rooted in embodied and situated experiences, including finger-counting. The current study extends previous cross-cultural research to address

A Deep Neural Network for Finger Counting and Numerosity Estimation [PDF]
2019 IEEE Symposium Series on Computational Intelligence (SSCI), 2019 In this paper, we present neuro-robotics models with a deep artificial neural network capable of generating finger counting positions and number estimation.
