Background Considerable effort has recently been made to improve the accurate diagnosis
of cerebral palsy (CP) in childhood and to establish early intervention aiming to improve …

Although the role played by finger use in children's numerical development has been widely
investigated, their benefit in arithmetical contexts is still debated today. This scoping review …

Previous research has established that finger counting in arithmetic positively correlates with
accuracy in 5 ½ to 8-year-old children. Whether this relation also exists in younger children …

Recent studies indicated that finger gnosis (ie, the ability to perceive and differentiate one's
own fingers) is associated reliably with basic numerical competencies. In this study, we …

In this longitudinal study, we aimed at determining whether children who efficiently use
finger counting are more likely to develop internalized arithmetic strategies than children …

Our study on 328 five‐to six‐year‐old kindergarteners (mainly White European living in
France, 152 girls) shows that children who do not count on their fingers and undergo finger …

In this study, we show that 6-year-old children with high working memory capacity are more
likely to use their fingers in an addition task than children with lower capacity. Moreover and …

Teachers' beliefs and attitudes are known to guide the type of activities they implement in
their classrooms. A traditional conception that finger counting is merely a back-up when …

Finger-based numerical representations have gained increasing research interest.
However, their description and assessment often refer to different numerical principles of …

Clinical observations indicate that many children with hemiplegic cerebral palsy refrain from
using or disregard the affected upper limb. The aim of the present study is to investigate …
