Humans tend to be inaccurate and inconsistent when estimating a large number of objects.
Furthermore, we modify our estimates when feedback or a reference array is provided …

Numerosity estimation performance (eg, how accurate, consistent, or proportionally spaced
(linear) numerosity-numeral mappings are) has previously been associated with math …

At a glance, one can tell that there are more individual fruits in a pile of 100 apples than in a
