Previous neuroimaging studies have offered unique insights about the spatial organization
of activations and deactivations across the brain; however, these were not powered to …

Developmental dyscalculia is a specific learning disorder that persists over lifetime and can
have an enormous impact on personal, health-related, and professional aspects of life …

Why would we want to develop artificial human-like arithmetical intelligence, when
computers already outperform humans in arithmetical calculations? Aside from arithmetic …

In the literature on numerical cognition, the presence of the capacity to distinguish between
numerosities by attending to the number of items, rather than continuous properties of stimuli …

In the literature on enculturation—the thesis according to which higher cognitive capacities
result from transformations in the brain driven by culture—numerical cognition is often cited …

Numbers are a constant presence in our daily lives: A brain devoid of the ability to process
numbers would not be functional in its external environment. Comparing numerical …

In three experiments, I examined the role of emotions in arithmetic and investigated how this
role changes with aging. I adopted a strategy approach and examined strategic aspects of …

We investigate the role of negative emotional stimuli on direct and indirect metacognition,
and document age-related differences in this role during adulthood. Participants were …

The field of numerical cognition provides a fairly clear picture of the processes through
which we learn basic arithmetical facts. This scientific picture, however, is rarely taken as …

The goal of this paper is to explore how an embodied view can redirect our understanding of
decision making. To achieve this goal, we contribute a developmental embodied choice …
