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 ...

Finger counting: The missing tool?
Behavioral and Brain Sciences, 2008 peer reviewedRips et al. claim that the principles underlying the structure of natural numbers cannot be inferred from interactions with the physical world. However, they failed to consider an important source of interaction: finger counting.

When Digits Help Digits: Spatial–Numerical Associations Point to Finger Counting as Prime Example of Embodied Cognition [PDF]
Frontiers in Psychology, 2011 Spatial–numerical associations (SNAs) are prevalent yet their origin is poorly understood. We first consider the possible prime role of reading habits in shaping SNAs and list three observations that argue against a prominent influence of this role: (1 ...

ALGORITHM FOR MULTI-HAND FINGER COUNTING: AN EASY APPROACH
CoRR, 2018 In this paper we propose an easy algorithm for real time hand finger counting involving one or more than one hand. Hand finger counting is a simple medium for Human-Computer Interface which can prove to be a convenient input method for driving ...

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.
