Grounded and embodied cognition (GEC) serves as a framework to investigate
mathematical reasoning for proof (reasoning that is logical, operative, and general), insight …

In this article, we contextualize and discuss an on-line contribution to this special issue in
which a video-recorded lecture demonstrates the teaching of an abstract mathematical …

In their strongest formulation, theories of grounded cognition claim that concepts are made
up of sensorimotor information. Following such equivalence, perceptual properties of objects …

There is substantial evidence linking numerical magnitude to the physical properties of
space. The most influential support for this connection comes from the SNARC effect (spatial …

Multiple tasks have been used to demonstrate the relation between numbers and space.
The classic interpretation of these directional spatial–numerical associations (d-SNAs) is …

Maintaining serial order in working memory is crucial for cognition. Recent theories propose
that serial information is achieved by positional coding of items on a spatial frame of …

The study has two objectives:(1) to introduce grip force recording as a new technique for
studying embodied numerical processing; and (2) to demonstrate how three competing …

Smaller numbers are typically responded to faster with a bottom than a top key, whereas the
opposite occurs for larger numbers (a vertical spatial–numerical association of response …

Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) and Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) both are rare
genetic neuromuscular diseases with progressive loss of motor ability. The neuromotor …

Embodied cognition opposes the view of the mind as a computer. It is therefore diagnostic to
assess how our bodies contribute to our computations—ie, to numerical cognition. We begin …
