Bilingualism and numerical cognition
Veredas - Revista de Estudos Linguísticos, 2020 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 ...

Beyond the icon: Core cognition and the bounds of perception [PDF]
, 2022 This paper refines a controversial proposal: that core systems belong to a perceptual kind, marked out by the format of its representational outputs.

Cognitive Neuroscience: Numerate Neurons [PDF]
Current Biology, 2003 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.

Numerical representation in the parietal lobes: Abstract or not abstract? [PDF]
, 2009 The study of neuronal specialisation in different cognitive and perceptual domains is important for our understanding of the human brain, its typical and atypical development, and the evolutionary precursors of cognition. Central to this understanding is

Enumeration and Alertness in Developmental Dyscalculia
Journal of Cognition, 2019 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.

Journal of Numerical Cognition, 2022 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 ...

The temporary nature of number-space interactions [PDF]
, 2016 It is commonly accepted that the mental representation and processing of numbers and of space are tightly linked. This is evident from studies that have shown relations between math ability and visuospatial skill.

Approaching stimuli bias attention in numerical space [PDF]
, 2012 Increasing evidence suggests that common mechanisms underlie the direction of attention in physical space and numerical space, along the mental number line. The small leftward bias (pseudoneglect) found on paper-and-pencil line bisection is also observed
