Thinking about time and number: An application of the dual-systems approach to numerical cognition

K Lohse, E Sixtus, J Lonnemann - Behavioral and Brain …, 2019 - search.proquest.com
Based on the notion that time, space, and number are part of a generalized magnitude
system, we assume that the dual-systems approach to temporal cognition also applies to …

A “sense of magnitude” requires a new alternative for learning numerical symbols

D Sasanguie, B Reynvoet - Behavioral and Brain Sciences, 2017 - search.proquest.com
Leibovich et al. proposed that the processing of numerosities is based primarily on a “sense
of magnitude.” The consequences of this proposal for how numerical symbols acquire their …

Making numbers out of magnitudes

BJ Morris, AM Masnick - Behavioral and Brain Sciences, 2008 - cambridge.org
We argue that number principles may be learnable instead of innate, by suggesting that
children acquire probabilistically true number concepts rather than algorithms. We also …

Precursors to number: Equivalence relations, less-than and greater-than relations, and units

C Sophian - Behavioral and Brain Sciences, 2008 - cambridge.org
Infants' knowledge need not have the same structure as the mature knowledge that
develops from it. Fundamental to an understanding of number are concepts of equivalence …

From “sense of number” to “sense of magnitude”: The role of continuous magnitudes in numerical cognition

T Leibovich, N Katzin, M Harel… - Behavioral and Brain …, 2017 - cambridge.org
In this review, we are pitting two theories against each other: the more accepted theory, the
number sense theory, suggesting that a sense of number is innate and non-symbolic …

Concrete magnitudes: From numbers to time

CM Falter, V Noreika, J Kiverstein… - Behavioral and Brain …, 2009 - cambridge.org
Cohen Kadosh & Walsh (CK&W) present convincing evidence indicating the existence of
notation-specific numerical representations in parietal cortex. We suggest that the same …

Numerical cognition needs more and better distinctions, not fewer

H Barth, A Shusterman - Behavioral and Brain Sciences, 2021 - par.nsf.gov
We agree that the approximate number system (ANS) truly represents number. We endorse
the authors' conclusions on the arguments from confounds, congruency, and imprecision …

Numerical cognition: Unitary or diversified system (s)?

A Henik, M Salti, A Avitan, E Oz-Cohen… - … and Brain Sciences, 2021 - search.proquest.com
Many researchers, including Clarke and Beck, describe the human numerical system as
unitary. We offer an alternative view–the coexistence of several systems; namely, multiple …

From continuous magnitudes to symbolic numbers: The centrality of ratio

PG Sidney, CA Thompson… - Behavioral and Brain …, 2017 - search.proquest.com
Leibovich et al.'s theory neither accounts for the deep connections between whole numbers
and other classes of number nor provides a potential mechanism for mapping continuous …
