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 …

There is a longstanding and widely held misconception about the relative remoteness of
abstract concepts from concrete experiences. This review examines the current evidence for …

Reflecting recent changes in the way cognition and the brain are studied, this thoroughly
updated fourth edition of this bestselling textbook provides a comprehensive and student …

People use space to conceptualize abstract domains like time and number. This tendency
may be a cognitive universal, but the specifics of people's implicit space–time and space …

While associations between number and space, in the form of a spatially oriented numerical
representation, have been extensively reported in human adults, the origins of this …

In this study, we aimed at investigating whether it is indeed the spatial magnitude
representation that links number line estimation performance to other basic numerical and …

Numerical knowledge, including number concepts and arithmetic procedures, seems to be a
clear-cut case for abstract symbol manipulation. Yet, evidence from perceptual and motor …

Human adults' numerical representation is spatially oriented; consequently, participants are
faster to respond to small/large numerals with their left/right hand, respectively, when doing …

Links between spatial and numerical thinking are well established in studies of adult
cognition. Here, we review recent research on the origins and development of these links …

The ability to maintain arbitrary sequences of items in the mind contributes to major cognitive
faculties, such as language, reasoning, and episodic memory. Previous research suggests …
