How do we convert a number into a finger trajectory?

D Dotan, S Dehaene - Cognition, 2013 - Elsevier
How do we understand two-digit numbers such as 42? Models of multi-digit number
comprehension differ widely. Some postulate that the decades and units digits are …

On the origins of logarithmic number-to-position mapping.

D Dotan, S Dehaene - Psychological review, 2016 - psycnet.apa.org
The number-to-position task, in which children and adults are asked to place numbers on a
spatial number line, has become a classic measure of number comprehension. We present …

Parallel and serial processes in number-to-quantity conversion

D Dotan, S Dehaene - Cognition, 2020 - Elsevier
Converting a multi-digit number to quantity requires processing not only the digits but also
the number's decimal structure, thus raising several issues. First, are all the digits processed …

Holistic or compositional representation of two-digit numbers? Evidence from the distance, magnitude, and SNARC effects in a number-matching task

X Zhou, C Chen, L Chen, Q Dong - Cognition, 2008 - Elsevier
Whether two-digit numbers are represented holistically (each digit pair processed as one
number) or compositionally (each digit pair processed separately as a decade digit and a …

Extending the mental number line

HC Nuerk, K Moeller, E Klein… - Zeitschrift Für …, 2015 - econtent.hogrefe.com
Multi-digit number processing is ubiquitous in our everyday life–even in school, multi-digit
numbers are computed from the first year onward. Yet, many problems children and adults …

A cognitive model for multidigit number reading: Inferences from individuals with selective impairments

D Dotan, N Friedmann - Cortex, 2018 - Elsevier
We propose a detailed cognitive model of multi-digit number reading. The model postulates
separate processes for visual analysis of the digit string and for oral production of the verbal …

[PDF][PDF] On the magnitude representations of two-digit numbers

HC Nuerk, K Willmes - Psychology Science, 2005 - Citeseer
In this review, we discuss how the magnitude of two-digit numbers is represented and argue
that the magnitude of tens and units is represented separately at least in addition to an …

Encoding numbers: Behavioral evidence for processing-specific representations

C Thevenot, P Barrouillet - Memory & Cognition, 2006 - Springer
The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis of a complex encoding of numbers according
to which each numerical processing requires a specific representational format for input. In …

The cultural number line: A review of cultural and linguistic influences on the development of number processing

SM Göbel, S Shaki, MH Fischer - Journal of Cross-Cultural …, 2011 - journals.sagepub.com
Approximate processing of numerosities is a universal and preverbal skill, while exact
number processing above 4 involves the use of culturally acquired number words and …

Calibrating the mental number line

V Izard, S Dehaene - Cognition, 2008 - Elsevier
Human adults are thought to possess two dissociable systems to represent numbers: an
approximate quantity system akin to a mental number line, and a verbal system capable of …
