Approaching stimuli bias attention in numerical space [PDF]

open access: yes, 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

Number line estimation and standardized test performance: The left digit effect does not predict SAT math score

open access: yesBrain and Behavior, 2020
Introduction Recent work reveals a new source of error in number line estimation (NLE), the left digit effect (Lai, Zax, et al., 2018), whereby numerals with different leftmost digits but similar magnitudes (e.g., 399, 401) are placed farther apart on a ...

Neuronal Correlation Parameter in the Idea of Thermodynamic Entropy of an N-Body Gravitationally Bounded System [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Understanding how the brain encodes information and performs computation requires statistical and functional analysis. Given the complexity of the human brain, simple methods that facilitate the interpretation of statistical correlations among different

Magnitude or Multitude – What Counts?

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2018
Recent studies revealed an association of low or high numbers (e.g., 1 vs. 9) and word semantics referring to entities typically found in upper or lower space (e.g., roof vs. root) indicating overlapping spatial representations.

Development of Preschoolers’ Understanding of Zero

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2021
While knowledge on the development of understanding positive integers is rapidly growing, the development of understanding zero remains not well-understood.

Reaction time to judge the temporal inequality of digits numbers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Several studies had consistently lighted mechanisms about the relation between spatial and numerical cognition; parallel to this, a separate research line begin to document similar relationships for the representation of time and quantity as well ...

Persistent Effects of Musical Training on Mathematical Skills of Children With Developmental Dyscalculia

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2020
Musical training (MT) is perceived as a multi-sensory program that simultaneously integrates visual, aural, oral, and kinesthetic senses. Furthermore, MT stimulates cognitive functions in a ludic way instead of tapping straight into the traditional ...

Does the number sense represent number? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
On a now orthodox view, humans and many other animals are endowed with a “number sense”, or approximate number system (ANS), that represents number. Recently, this orthodox view has been subject to numerous critiques, with critics maintaining either that

Spatial and verbal routes to number comparison in young children [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The ability to compare the numerical magnitude of symbolic numbers represents a milestone in the development of numerical skills. However, it remains unclear how basic numerical abilities contribute to the understanding of symbolic magnitude and whether ...
