Evidence for distinct magnitude systems for symbolic and non-symbolic number

D Sasanguie, B De Smedt, B Reynvoet - Psychological research, 2017 - Springer
Cognitive models of magnitude representation are mostly based on the results of studies
that use a magnitude comparison task. These studies show similar distance or ratio effects in …

[HTML][HTML] Single-digit Arabic numbers do not automatically activate magnitude representations in adults or in children: Evidence from the symbolic same–different task

B Wong, D Szücs - Acta Psychologica, 2013 - Elsevier
We investigated whether the mere presentation of single-digit Arabic numbers activates their
magnitude representations using a visually-presented symbolic same–different task for 20 …

The role of numerosity in processing nonsymbolic proportions

S Fabbri, S Caviola, J Tang, M Zorzi… - Quarterly Journal of …, 2012 - journals.sagepub.com
The difficulty in processing fractions seems to be related to the interference between the
whole-number value of the numerator and the denominator and the real value of the fraction …

Symbolic number comparison is not processed by the analog number system: Different symbolic and non-symbolic numerical distance and size effects

A Krajcsi, G Lengyel, P Kojouharova - Frontiers in Psychology, 2018 - frontiersin.org
HIGHLIGHTS We test whether symbolic number comparison is handled by an analog noisy
system. Analog system model has systematic biases in describing symbolic number …

Numerals do not need numerosities: Robust evidence for distinct numerical representations for symbolic and non-symbolic numbers

M Marinova, D Sasanguie, B Reynvoet - Psychological Research, 2021 - Springer
In numerical cognition research, it has traditionally been argued that the processing of
symbolic numerals (eg, digits) is identical to the processing of the non-symbolic …

Magnitude representation in sequential comparison of two-digit numbers is not holistic either

K Moeller, E Klein, HC Nuerk, K Willmes - Cognitive processing, 2013 - Springer
There is accumulating evidence suggesting that two-digit number magnitude is represented
in a decomposed fashion into tens and units rather than holistically as one integrated entity …

A general magnitude system in human adults: Evidence from a subliminal priming paradigm

SF Lourenco, V Ayzenberg, J Lyu - Cortex, 2016 - Elsevier
Despite general agreement that number and other magnitudes share analog format, there is
disagreement about the extent to which representations of numerical and non-numerical …

The importance of being relevant: Modulation of magnitude representations

T Leibovich, L Diesendruck, O Rubinsten… - Frontiers in …, 2013 - frontiersin.org
The current study aims to answer two main questions. First, is there a difference between the
representations of the numerical and the physical properties of visually presented numbers …

Across-notation automatic numerical processing.

D Ganor-Stern, J Tzelgov - Journal of Experimental Psychology …, 2008 - psycnet.apa.org
In this article, the authors explored the existence of across-notation automatic numerical
processing using size comparison and same-different paradigms. Participants were Arabic …

The mental representation of the magnitude of symbolic and nonsymbolic ratios in adults

G Meert, J Grégoire, X Seron… - Quarterly journal of …, 2012 - journals.sagepub.com
This study mainly investigated the specificity of the processing of fraction magnitudes. Adults
performed a magnitude-estimation task on fractions, the ratios of collections of dots, and the …
