A general model framework for multisymbol number comparison.
Different models have been proposed for the processing of multisymbol numbers like two-
and three-digit numbers but also for negative numbers and decimals. However, these …

Running the number line: Rapid shifts of attention in single-digit arithmetic
R Mathieu, A Gourjon, A Couderc, C Thevenot, J Prado - Cognition, 2016 - Elsevier
It has been recently proposed that adults might solve single-digit addition and subtraction
problems by rapidly moving through an ordered representation of numbers. In the present …

The source of the symbolic numerical distance and size effects
Human number understanding is thought to rely on the analog number system (ANS),
working according to Weber's law. We propose an alternative account, suggesting that …

Basic and advanced numerical performances relate to mathematical expertise but are fully mediated by visuospatial skills.
Recent studies have highlighted the potential role of basic numerical processing in the
acquisition of numerical and mathematical competences. However, it is debated whether …

Numerical landmarks are useful—Except when they're not
RS Siegler, CA Thompson - Journal of experimental child psychology, 2014 - Elsevier
Placing landmarks on number lines, such as marking each tenth on a 0–1 line with a hatch
mark and the corresponding decimal, has been recommended as a useful tool for improving …
