Adaptation acts directly on the sensory representation of numerosity [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports
Like most perceptual systems, the perception of numerosity is susceptible to adaptation. However, while adaptation to large numerosities is large and spectacular, obvious on demonstration, adapting to sparse fields (reverse adaptation) causes smaller ...

Serial dependence in numerosity perception. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Vis, 2018
Our conscious experience of the external world is remarkably stable and seamless, despite the intrinsically discontinuous and noisy nature of sensory information. Serial dependencies in visual perception-reflecting attractive biases making a current stimulus to appear more similar to previous ones-have been recently hypothesized to be involved in ...

The radial-tangential anisotropy of numerosity perception. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Vis
Humans can estimate the number of visually presented items without counting. In most studies on numerosity perception, items are uniformly distributed across displays, with identical distributions in central and eccentric parts. However, the neural and perceptual representation of the human visual field differs between the fovea and the periphery.

Virtual Reality as an Innovative Tool for Numerosity Perception

open access: yesApplied Sciences
Numeracy, the ability to use basic mathematical skills in everyday life, is essential in modern society. Recent studies have shown a connection between numeracy and visual numerosity perception, yet traditional 2D screen-based assessment methods often ...

Numerosity perception after size adaptation. [PDF]

open access: yesSci Rep, 2016
AbstractWhile some researchers propose the existence of a special numerosity sense, others challenge this view and argue that numerosity is derived from low-level features as density information. Here, we used size adaptation to manipulate the apparent area size of an object set without changing its physical density.

Intracranial recordings show evidence of numerosity tuning in human parietal cortex

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2022
Numerosity is the set size of a group of items. Numerosity perception is a trait shared across numerous species. Numerosity-selective neural populations are thought to underlie numerosity perception.

Assessing the ecological validity of numerosity-selective neuronal populations with real-world natural scenes

open access: yesiScience, 2022
Summary: Animals and humans are able to quickly and effortlessly estimate the number of items in a set: their numerosity. Numerosity perception is thought to be critical to behavior, from feeding to escaping predators to human mathematical cognition ...

Tuned neural responses to haptic numerosity in the putamen

open access: yesNeuroImage, 2021
The ability to perceive the numerosity of items in the environment is critical for behavior of species across the evolutionary tree. Though the focus of studies of numerosity perception lays on the parietal and frontal cortices, the ability to perceive ...

The neural correlates of individual differences in numerosity perception: A voxel-based morphometry study

open access: yesiScience, 2023
Summary: Numerosity perception is a fundamental cognitive function in humans and animals. Using an individual difference approach with a comprehensive dataset (N = 249), we performed a voxel-based morphometry analysis to unravel the neuroanatomical ...
