Accumulating evidence suggests that there is a spontaneous preference for numerical,
compared to non‐numerical (eg, cumulative surface area), information. However, given a …

It has been proposed that humans use non-numerical features (such as convex hull and
surface area) to estimate the number of objects in a scene. This would be an evolutionarily …

Two experiments examined interocular transfer for simple and dynamic aftereffects of
density and contrast. Simple aftereffects of texture contrast were shown to be primarily …

The temporal granularity of consciousness may be far less fine than the real-time information
processing mechanisms that underlie our sensitivity to small temporal differences. It is …

A genuinely abstract number representation is thought to be capable of representing the
numerosity of any set of discrete elements, whether they are sequentially or simultaneously …

数值加工的机制是数量认知领域的核心科学问题之一. 三数值加工系统假说从新的角度阐释了各
种数值加工机制的关系, 它认为认知系统通过三种不同的机制来快速分析非符号刺激的数值 …

Visual cues have an important role in food preference for both rats and humans. Here, we
aim to isolate the effects of numerosity, density, and surface area on food preference and …

Many animal species share the ability to discriminate between sets with different quantity of
food items. In fish, this ability has rarely been investigated, although findings have been …

Less salient, lower contrast disks appear to be more numerous than more salient, higher
contrast disks when intermingled in equal numbers into the same display (Lei & Reeves …

Numerosity perception has long been understood to be divided between subitizing and
estimation. In a series of three experiments (total N= 113), a new number “elbow” point in the …
