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

Number as a primary perceptual attribute: A review
Although humans are the only species to possess language-driven abstract mathematical
capacities, we share with many other animals a nonverbal capacity for estimating quantities …

[HTML][HTML] 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; …

Children's intuitive sense of number develops independently of their perception of area, density, length, and time
D Odic - Developmental Science, 2018 - Wiley Online Library
Young children can quickly and intuitively represent the number of objects in a visual scene
through the Approximate Number System (ANS). The precision of the ANS–indexed as the …

A common visual metric for approximate number and density
There is considerable interest in how humans estimate the number of objects in a scene in
the context of an extensive literature on how we estimate the density (ie, spacing) of objects …
