Frontiers in Psychology, 2022 Whether negative numbers have a fixed spatial–numerical association of response codes effect (SNARC effect), and (if they have) whether the spatial representation of negative numbers is associated with negative numbers’ absolute or signed values remains ...

On the embodied nature of knowledge: From neurons to numbers
Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, Volume 1537, Issue 1, Page 5-12, July 2024.Abstract Interdisciplinary investigations of the human mind through the cognitive sciences have identified a key role of the body in representing knowledge. After characterizing knowledge at grounded, embodied, and situated levels, number knowledge is analyzed from this hierarchical perspective.

European Journal of Neuroscience, Volume 59, Issue 11, Page 2967-2978, June 2024.Abstract Neuromodulation with transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) can transiently alter neural activity, but its spatial precision is low. High‐definition (HD) tDCS was introduced to increase spatial precision by placing additional electrodes over the scalp.

Child Development, Volume 95, Issue 3, Page 1032-1039, May/June 2024.Abstract The number line estimation task is frequently used to measure children's numerical magnitude understanding. It is unclear whether the resulting straight, horizontal, left‐to‐right‐oriented estimate patterns indicate task constraints or children's intuitive number–space mapping.

Interaction mechanism between location and sequence in letter cognition
Acta Psychologica, 2021 A previous study used days as a sequence symbol to investigate the interaction mechanism between location and sequence in sequence symbol cognition; the study findings suggested that the spatial stimulus-response compatibility effect and the Simon effect

Developmental Science, Volume 27, Issue 2, March 2024.Abstract Adults shift their attention to the right or to the left along a spatial continuum when solving additions and subtractions, respectively. Studies suggest that these shifts not only support the exact computation of the results but also anticipatively narrow down the range of plausible answers when processing the operands.

Spatial coding of ordinal information in short- and long-term memory
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2015 The processing of numerical information induces a spatial response bias: Faster responses to small numbers with the left hand and faster responses to large numbers with the right hand.

Journal of Neuroscience Research, Volume 102, Issue 2, February 2024.Abstract Neuromodulation with transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is an increasingly popular research tool to experimentally manipulate cortical areas and probe their causal involvements in behavior, but its replicability and regional specificity are not clear.

Space in Numerical and Ordinal Information: A Common Construct?
Journal of Numerical Cognition, 2017 Space is markedly involved in numerical processing, both explicitly in instrumental learning and implicitly in mental operations on numbers. Besides action decisions, action generations, and attention, the response-related effect of numerical magnitude ...
