Animal Cognition, Species Invariantism, and Mathematical Realism [PDF]
What can we infer from numerical cognition about mathematical realism? In this paper, I will consider one aspect of numerical cognition that has received little attention in the literature: the remarkable similarities of numerical cognitive capacities ...

Contributions of functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) to the Study of Numerical Cognition
Using neuroimaging as a lens through which to understand numerical and mathematical cognition has provided both a different and complementary level of analysis to the broader behavioural literature.

Parietal functional connectivity in numerical cognition. [PDF]
The parietal cortex is central to numerical cognition. The right parietal region is primarily involved in basic quantity processing, while the left parietal region is additionally involved in precise number processing and numerical operations. Little is known about how the 2 regions interact during numerical cognition.

The intraparietal sulcus (IPS) is thought to be an important region for basic number processing (e.g. symbol-quantity associations) and arithmetic (e.g. addition).

Extracting Summary Statistics of Rapid Numerical Sequences
We examine the ability of observers to extract summary statistics (such as the mean and the relative-variance) from rapid numerical sequences of two digit numbers presented at a rate of 4/s.

Are Approximate Number System Representations Numerical?
Previous research suggests that the Approximate Number System (ANS) allows people to approximate the cardinality of a set. This ability to discern numerical quantities may explain how meaning becomes associated with number symbols.

How Memory Counts in Mathematical Development
Memory has been well-established as a predictor of mathematics achievement in child development. Nevertheless, empirical evidence remains elusive on the unique role of the different forms of memory and their specific mechanisms as predictors of ...

Bilingualism and numerical cognition
The present study aimed to investigate the relationship between bilingualism and numerical cognition, more specifically, the way English-Portuguese bilinguals solve simple mathematical problems when these are presented in different formats (digits, English, and Portuguese) and whether their language history background has any effect on such behavior ...
