Mathematics skills are associated with future employment, well-being, and quality of life.
However, many adults and children fail to learn the mathematics skills they require. To …

Digit comparison is strongly related to individual differences in children's arithmetic ability.
Why this is the case, however, remains unclear to date. Therefore, we investigated the …

Recent studies have shown that deductive reasoning skills (including transitive and
conditional inferences) are related to mathematical abilities. Nevertheless, so far the links …

Ordinal processing plays a fundamental role in both the representation and manipulation of
symbolic numbers. As such, it is important to understand how children come to develop a …

This study tested the hypothesis that individuals with dyscalculia have an order processing
deficit. The ordering measures included both numerical and non-numerical ordering tasks …

There is an ongoing debate concerning how numbers acquire numerical meaning. On the
one hand, it has been argued that symbols acquire meaning via a mapping to external …

Introduction Human language allows us to generate an infinite number of linguistic
expressions. It's proposed that this competence is based on a binary syntactic operation …

Mathematical competencies can be conceptualized as layers of knowledge, with numeracy
skills as the foundational core and more complex mathematical skills as the additional layers …

There is evidence that early variations in the development of an approximate number system
(ANS) and symbolic number understanding are both influences on the later development of …

Ordinality is a fundamental feature of numbers and recent studies have highlighted the role
that number ordering abilities play in mathematical development (eg, Lyons et al.,), as well …
