Finger counting, finger number gesturing, and basic numerical skills: A cross-sectional study in 3- to 5-year-olds

Journal of Experimental Child Psychology
Recent evidence suggests that using finger-based strategies is beneficial for the acquisition of basic numerical skills. There are basically two finger-based strategies to be distinguished: (a) finger counting (i.e., extending single fingers successively)

Finger-counting observation interferes with number processing.

Neuropsychologia, 2019
Aim of this study was to investigate the association between finger and number representation in a task in which students had to perform arithmetic calculations and decide whether the provided solution was correct or incorrect, while a pair of task ...

Finger Counting and (2D:4D) Digit Ratio in Spatial-Numerical Association

Perception, 2016
It is reported that a canonical and cultural finger counting habit influences the spatial-numerical association. The digit ratio (the ratio between the lengths of the index and ring fingers as a putative indicator of prenatal androgen exposure) also plays an effect on space-number representation, reflecting a stronger left-to-right number ...

The role of children's finger counting history on their addition skills.

Developmental Psychology
It has been established that whereas young children who use their fingers to solve arithmetic problems outperform those who do not, this trend reverses in older children around the age of 7.

Enhancing mathematics learning through finger-counting: A study investigating tactile strategies in 2 visually impaired cases

Applied Neuropsychology: Child
Finger-counting plays a crucial role in grounding and establishing mathematics, one of the most abstract domains of human cognition. While the combination of visual and proprioceptive information enables the coordination of finger movements, it was ...

Finger counting habits modulate spatial-numerical associations

Cortex, 2008
This study explored the contribution of finger counting habits to the association of numbers with space (the SNARC effect). First, a questionnaire study indicated that two-thirds of 445 adults started counting on their left hand, regardless of their handedness.

Finger counting: an alternative method for estimating pediatric weights.

The American Journal of Emergency Medicine, 2013
We compared the accuracy of a conceptually simple pediatric weight estimation technique, the finger counting method, with other commonly used methods.We prospectively collected cross-sectional data on a convenience sample of 207 children aged 1 to 9 presenting to our pediatric emergency department.

The impact of finger counting habits on arithmetic in adults and children

Psychological Research, 2014
Here, we explored the impact of finger counting habits on arithmetic in both adults and children. Two groups of participants were examined, those that begin counting with their left hand (left-starters) and those that begin counting with their right hand (right-starters). For the adults, performance on an addition task in which participants added 2 two-
