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)

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 ...

Inheritance of Asymmetry in Finger Ridge Counts

Human Heredity, 1970
Hereditary nature of the measure of asymmetry (A2) is demonstrated by using the square root of this measure. The relationship between heritability and correlation is discussed.

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-irrelevant hands gesturally expressed the same or a different number.

Components of racial variation in finger ridge‐counts

American Journal of Physical Anthropology, 1980
AbstractPrincipal components analysis was used to evaluate finger ridge–count variability as an indicator of genetic relationships between populations. The analysis was carried out on American White, American Black and African Black samples, each including both sexes.

The relation between total finger ridge‐count and variability of counts from finger to finger: genetic implications of racial variation

Annals of Human Genetics, 1976
The measure of ridge-count diversity, S/square root 10, was computed for a sample of American Whites, American Blacks and African Blacks, and the regression of S/square root 10 on total ridge-count was determined for each group. The shapes of the regression lines differed considerably.

GENETICS OF DERMAL RIDGES: THE RELATION BETWEEN TOTAL RIDGE‐COUNT AND THE VARIABILITY OF COUNTS FROM FINGER TO FINGER

Annals of Human Genetics, 1958
SummaryPart 1Frequency distributions for the finger ridge‐count on each of the ten digits in a population sample of 825 males and 825 females are given, together with their respective means and standard deviations.The highest means are those for digit I, followed in order by those for digits IV, V, III and II.The mean ridge‐count is significantly ...

THE CORRELATIONS BETWEEN RIDGE‐COUNTS ON DIFFERENT FINGERS

Annals of Eugenics, 1951
The articles published by the Annals of Eugenics (1925–1954) have been made available online as an historical archive intended for scholarly use. The work of eugenicists was often pervaded by prejudice against racial, ethnic and disabled groups. The online publication of this material for scholarly research purposes is not an endorsement of those views

Finger Counting: Continuous Daily Diagnoses

Reading, 1997
Monitoring reading behaviour is a major aspect of the work of teachers of reading. Clearly, in order to plan a sensible reading programme, teachers need information about children’s reading performance and needs. This article describes the use of a finger counting system as one way for teachers to continually monitor children’s reading behaviour and ...
