Using Excel to Develop Random Number Sense [PDF]
People have difficulty creating and recognizing random sequences, but can become better at these tasks through practice and feedback. This paper describes how simulations produced with Excel can be used to visually display a sequence of random events ...

The Numeric Ebbinghaus Effect: Evidence for a Density-Area Mechanism of Numeric Estimation?
One model of numeric perception is a density-area mechanism: a process that estimates both density and area of an array, then multiplies them to create an estimate of number.
