Pathways for learning arithmetic
Learning is a multifaceted process that continues across the lifespan, with variation in how different types of knowledge are acquired and retained. One distinction exists between the cognitive skills learned through memory-based associations and those learned through rule-based (strategy) execution. While both forms are central to arithmetic acquisition, little is known about their dynamics in adulthood and their cognitive underpinnings. Address…
Arithmetic Proficiency Across Adulthood
Arithmetic competence is crucial for navigating modern society and maintaining independence. It relies on domain-general and domain-specific cognitive skills, as well as subjective factors. Given its importance, understanding how these factors shape adult arithmetic proficiency is essential. This study investigated demographic, cognitive, and subjective influences on various arithmetic skills throughout adulthood, including both younger and older…
Are infants' preferences in the number change detection paradigm driven by sequence patterns
Inter‐individual differences in infants' numerosity processing have been assessed using a change detection paradigm, where participants were presented with two concurrent streams of images, one alternating between two numerosities and the other showing one constant numerosity. While most infants look longer at the changing stream in this paradigm, the reasons underlying these preferences have remained unclear. We suggest that, besides being attra…
Preschool language and visuospatial skills respectively predict multiplication and addition/subtraction skills in middle school children
A converging body of evidence from neuroimaging, behavioral, and neuropsychology studies suggests that different arithmetic operations rely on distinct neuro-cognitive processes: while addition and subtraction may rely more on visuospatial reasoning, multiplication would depend more on verbal abilities. In this paper, we tested this hypothesis in a longitudinal study measuring language and visuospatial skills in 358 preschoolers, and testing thei…
Comparing set-to-number and number-to-set measures of cardinal number knowledge in preschool children using latent variable modeling
Numerical estimation in preschoolers
Children's sense of numbers before formal education is thought to rely on an approximate number system based on logarithmically compressed analog magnitudes that increases in resolution throughout childhood. School-age children performing a numerical estimation task have been shown to increasingly rely on a formally appropriate, linear representation and decrease their use of an intuitive, logarithmic one. We investigated the development of numer…
Interactions between number and space in parietal cortex
Three Parietal Circuits for Number Processing
Did evolution endow the human brain with a predisposition to represent and acquire knowledge about numbers? Although the parietal lobe has been suggested as a potential substrate for a domain-specific representation of quantities, it is also engaged in verbal, spatial, and attentional functions that may contribute to calculation. To clarify the organisation of number-related processes in the parietal lobe, we examine the three-dimensional interse…
