The literature on spatial associations during number processing is dominated by the SNARC
(spatial–numerical association of response codes) effect. We describe spatial biases found …

Spatial–numerical associations (SNAs) are prevalent yet their origin is poorly understood.
We first consider the possible prime role of reading habits in shaping SNAs and list three …

This book argues that definite descriptions ('the table','the King of France') refer to
individuals, as Gottlob Frege claimed. This apparently simple conclusion flies in the face of …

Abstract Space, time, and number are fundamental to how we act within and reason about
the world. These three experiential domains are systematically intertwined in behavior …

The study of neuronal specialisation in different cognitive and perceptual domains is
important for our understanding of the human brain, its typical and atypical development …

Embodied theories are increasingly challenging traditional views of cognition by arguing
that conceptual representations that constitute our knowledge are grounded in sensory and …

Sensorimotor areas activate to action-and object-related words, but their role in abstract
meaning processing is still debated. Abstract emotion words denoting body internal states …

A large number of experimental findings from neuroscience and experimental psychology
demonstrated interactions between spatial cognition and numerical cognition. In particular …

When we add or subtract, do the corresponding quantities “move” along a mental number
line? Does this internal movement lead to spatial biases? A new method was designed to …

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 …
