Finger counting and numerical cognition [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers 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 ...

Examining Challenges Associated with Numerical Cognition in Early Years Challenges Associated with Numerical Cognition in Early Years

open access: yesInternational Journal of Research in STEM Education, 2022
The current research aims at examining challenges associated with numerical cognition in early years in South Africa. Guided by cognitive learning theory, the current investigation was informed by continuous quest in South Africa.

True Numerical Cognition in the Wild. [PDF]

open access: yesPsychol Sci, 2017
Cognitive and neural research over the past few decades has produced sophisticated models of the representations and algorithms underlying numerical reasoning in humans and other animals. These models make precise predictions for how humans and other animals should behave when faced with quantitative decisions, yet primarily have been tested only in ...

A sensorimotor perspective on numerical cognition [PDF]

open access: yesTrends in Cognitive Sciences, 2023
Numbers are present in every part of modern society and the human capacity to use numbers is unparalleled in other species. Understanding the mental and neural representations supporting this capacity is of central interest to cognitive psychology, neuroscience, and education.

Semantic cognition versus numerical cognition: a topographical perspective

open access: yesTrends in Cognitive Sciences, 2023
Semantic cognition and numerical cognition are dissociable faculties with separable neural mechanisms. However, recent advances in the cortical topography of the temporal and parietal lobes have revealed a common organisational principle for the neural representations of semantics and numbers.

How Does the Accuracy of Children’s Number Representations Influence the Accuracy of Their Numerical Predictions?

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2022
Predictions begin with an extrapolation of the properties of their underlying representations to forecast a future state not presently in evidence. For numerical predictions, sets of numbers are summarized and the result forms the basis of and constrains

Processing Individually Distinctive Schematic-Faces Supports Proto-Arithmetical Counting in the Young Domestic Chicken

open access: yesAnimals, 2022
A key signature of small-number processing is the difficulty in discriminating between three and four objects, as reported in infants and animals. Five-day-old chicks overcome this limit if individually distinctive features characterize each object.

Developmental specialization of the left parietal cortex for the semantic representation of Arabic numerals: An fMR-adaptation study

open access: yesDevelopmental Cognitive Neuroscience, 2015
The way the human brain constructs representations of numerical symbols is poorly understood. While increasing evidence from neuroimaging studies has indicated that the intraparietal sulcus (IPS) becomes increasingly specialized for symbolic numerical ...
