Number sense in infancy predicts mathematical abilities in childhood
A Starr, ME Libertus… - Proceedings of the …, 2013 - National Acad Sciences
Human infants in the first year of life possess an intuitive sense of number. This preverbal
number sense may serve as a developmental building block for the uniquely human …

Spontaneous perception of numerosity in humans
Humans, including infants, and many other species have a capacity for rapid, nonverbal
estimation of numerosity. However, the mechanisms for number perception are still not clear; …
