ABSTRACT The ability to understand and compare non‐symbolic (e.g., dot arrays) and symbolic (e.g., Arabic numerals) magnitudes is a critical foundation for learning math. A meta‐analysis has revealed that symbolic magnitude processing is a stronger predictor of math performance than non‐symbolic, but the evidence base is restricted almost entirely to ...

Between Order and Confusion: Clearing up Structural Misconceptions in Carbon Materials Nomenclature
Despite the versatile use of carbon materials, inconsistent terminology and inadequate characterization – especially regarding graphene structures based on sp2‐hybridized carbon atoms – often cause confusion. This perspective clarifies terms like graphite, graphitic carbon, non‐graphitic carbon, and amorphous carbon by aligning IUPAC definitions with X‐
