The role of visual experience for spatial numerical associations
Seeing and Perceiving, 2012The topographic representation of space interacts with the mental representation of number. Evidence for such number–space relations have been reported in both synaesthetic and non-synaesthetic participants. Thus far most studies have only examined related effects in sighted participants. For example, the mental number line increases in magnitude from

SNARC struggles: Instant control over spatial–numerical associations.
Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2013[Correction Notice: An Erratum for this article was reported in Vol 39(6) of Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition (see record 2013-39107-001). In the article, incorrect values appeared for the number of trials in the experiment (section: Procedure) and for the intercepts of four regression lines (section: Regression ...

Finger counting habits modulate spatial-numerical associations
Cortex, 2008This study explored the contribution of finger counting habits to the association of numbers with space (the SNARC effect). First, a questionnaire study indicated that two-thirds of 445 adults started counting on their left hand, regardless of their handedness.

Finger Counting and (2D:4D) Digit Ratio in Spatial-Numerical Association
Perception, 2015It is reported that a canonical and cultural finger counting habit influences the spatial-numerical association. The digit ratio (the ratio between the lengths of the index and ring fingers as a putative indicator of prenatal androgen exposure) also plays an effect on space-number representation, reflecting a stronger left-to-right number ...

Implicit spatial-numerical associations: Negative numbers and the role of counting direction.
Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2017It has been debated whether negative number concepts are cognitively represented on the same mental number line as positive number concepts. The present study reviews this debate and identifies limitations of previous studies. A method with nonspatial stimuli and responses is applied to overcome these limitations and to document a systematic implicit ...

Further Evidence for a Spatial-Numerical Association in Children Before Formal Schooling
Experimental Psychology, 2014Given the robust finding that number and space are associated systematically at least in school children and adults, it has been concluded that this association might be based on the frequent practice of reading or writing skills, which are usually consolidated by formal schooling.

Finger Counting Habits and Spatial-Numerical Association in Horizontal and Vertical Orientations
Journal of Cognition and Culture, 2013Abstract The SNARC effect reflects an association between space and number representations, suggesting a mental number line. Horizontally, the number line is oriented from left-to-right while vertically, the number line is oriented from bottom-to-top.
