  1. Mathematics Experience and Format-specific Effects in Numerical Cognition

    Koller, Justé AncaNational University of Ireland Maynooth2012

    A persistent issue in numerical cognition research is how the format of numerical information influences numerical processing. The format-independent view postulates that information from various formats (e.g. ‘3’ or ‘three’) is represented in a uniform numerical code and that format should thus …

  3. Comparative Studies of Numerical Cognition in Nonhuman Primates: From Numerical Comparison to Arithmetic

    Jones, Sarah Mychal2012

    … field has been on providing existence proofs of numerical competence in wide-ranging taxa or using individual species as models for comparisons with humans. Recent findings in numerical cognition have suggested that evidence for approximate numerical abilities in nonhuman species may indicate …

  4. Numeric Memory: Developing Representations

    Marciani, FrancescaThe Ohio State University2013

    … (FTT) and the representational change account of numerical cognition, the present study introduced a single number recall task in which 39 preschool-aged children were asked to remember a quantity between 0 and 20 following a brief distractor task. Emphasizing accuracy of single number recall, …

    Yi, AngelaVirginia Tech2025

    … morbidity data for the public. We link the numerical cognition literature to the important domain of consumer perceptions of the health threat posed by a disease and their adoption of preventive behaviors. In multiple studies, we find that when the underlying prevalence and fatality numbers …

  6. The interpretation and use of numerically-quantified expressions

    Cummins, ChrisUniversity of Cambridge2011

    … pragmatic account of the meaning and use of numerically-quantified expressions. It can readily be seen that quantities can typically be described by many semantically truthful expressions – for instance, if "more than 12" is true of a quantity, so is "more than 11", "more than 10", and so on. …

  7. The representation of numbers in space : a journey along the mental number line

    Müller, DanaUniversität Potsdam

    … This effect has been labelled as Spatial Numerical Association of Response Codes (SNARC) effect. The first study of the present thesis deals with the question whether the spatial orientation of the mental number line derives from the writing system participants are adapted to. According to …
