Finger-Counting and Numerical Structure [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2021
Number systems differ cross-culturally in characteristics like how high counting extends and which number is used as a productive base. Some of this variability can be linked to the way the hand is used in counting.

Effects of Finger Counting on Numerical Development ? The Opposing Views of Neurocognition and Mathematics Education [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2011
Usually children learn the basic principles of number and arithmetic by the help of finger-based representations. However, whether the reliance on finger-based representations is only beneficial or whether it may even become detrimental is the subject of

Nature or Nurture in Finger Counting: A Review on the Determinants of the Direction of Number?Finger Mapping [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2011
The spontaneous use of finger counting has been for long recognised as critical to the acquisition of number skills. Recently, the great interest on space-number associations shifted attention to the practice of finger counting itself, and specifically ...

The Evolution of Finger Counting between Kindergarten and Grade 2 [PDF]

open access: yesChildren, 2022
In this longitudinal study, we aimed at determining whether children who efficiently use finger counting are more likely to develop internalized arithmetic strategies than children who are less efficient.

Cultural similarities and specificities of finger counting and montring: Evidence from Amazon Tsimane' people

open access: yesActa Psychologica, 2023
Numerical cognition might be embodied, that is, grounded in bodily actions. This claim is supported by the observation that, potentially due to our shared biology, finger counting is prevalent among a variety of cultures.

French preschool and primary teachers' attitude towards finger counting

open access: yesActa Psychologica, 2023
Teachers' beliefs and attitudes are known to guide the type of activities they implement in their classrooms. A traditional conception that finger counting is merely a back-up when children fail to use more sophisticated and efficient strategies could ...

Incidental Counting: Speeded Number Naming Through Finger Movements

open access: yesJournal of Cognition, 2018
The first steps in numerical cognition are usually done in conjunction with fingers. Following the assumption that abstract concepts stay associated with the sensory-motor information that was present during their acquisition and consolidation, mental ...

Finger-Counting-Based Gesture Recognition within Cars Using Impulse Radar with Convolutional Neural Network [PDF]

open access: yesSensors, 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 ...

No fingers, no SNARC? Neither the finger counting starting hand, nor its stability robustly affect the SNARC effect

open access: yesActa Psychologica, 2022
The Spatial-Numerical Association of Response Codes (SNARC) effect (i.e., faster left/right sided responses to small/large magnitude numbers, respectively) is considered to be strong evidence for the link between numbers and space.

Method for User Interface of Large Displays Using Arm Pointing and Finger Counting Gesture Recognition [PDF]

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2014
Although many three-dimensional pointing gesture recognition methods have been proposed, the problem of self-occlusion has not been considered. Furthermore, because almost all pointing gesture recognition methods use a wide-angle camera, additional ...
