Situated cognition and the function of behavior [PDF]
In his review of “situated cognition” Cheng reminds us that the properties of cognition can be influenced by much more than what is going on in the brain.

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 ...

Verbal Working Memory Load Dissociates Common Indices of the Numerical Distance Effect: Implications for the Study of Numerical Cognition [PDF]
In four experiments, we explore the role that verbal WM plays in numerical comparison. Experiment 1 demonstrates that verbal WM load differentially impacts the two most common variants of numerical comparison tasks, evidenced by distinct modulation of ...

Enumeration and Alertness in Developmental Dyscalculia
Enumeration, the ability to report an amount of elements, differs as a function of range. Subitizing (quantities 1–4) is an accurate and quick process with reaction times (RTs) minimally affected by the number of presented elements within its range.

Rudiments of mind: Insights through the chick model on number and space cognition in animals [PDF]
Studies on human infants, focused on the ontogenetic origins of knowledge, have provided evidence for a small set of separable systems of core knowledge dealing with the representation of objects, number, and space.

Exact arithmetic abilities require symbolic numerals, which constitute a precise representation of quantities, such as the Arabic digits. Numerical thinking, however, also engages an intuitive non-linguistic number sense, the Approximate Number System ...

Cognitive Neuroscience: Numerate Neurons [PDF]
Whether the neuronal encoding of number is linear or logarithmic divides cognitive neuroscientists working on mathematical cognition. Recordings from the prefrontal cortex of the monkey support the logarithmic hypothesis. Similarities between number and the coding of other quantities are also beginning to become apparent.

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 ...
