Improving Preschoolers’ Arithmetic through Number Magnitude Training: The Impact of Non-Symbolic and Symbolic Training
The numerical cognition literature offers two views to explain numerical and arithmetical development. The unique-representation view considers the approximate number system (ANS) to represent the magnitude of both symbolic and non-symbolic numbers and to be the basis of numerical learning. In contrast, the dual-representation view suggests that symbolic and non-symbolic skills rely on differen...
متن کاملBrief non-symbolic, approximate number practice enhances subsequent exact symbolic arithmetic in children.
Recent research reveals a link between individual differences in mathematics achievement and performance on tasks that activate the approximate number system (ANS): a primitive cognitive system shared by diverse animal species and by humans of all ages. Here we used a brief experimental paradigm to test one causal hypothesis suggested by this relationship: activation of the ANS may enhance chil...
متن کاملNeural correlates of symbolic and non-symbolic arithmetic.
Recent evidence suggests that areas in and around the intraparietal sulcus (IPS) represent magnitude in a stimulus-independent format. However, it has not been established whether the same is true for mental arithmetic or whether activation for higher level numerical processing diverges as a function of stimulus format. We addressed this question in a functional imaging study by presenting part...
متن کاملSymbolic Arithmetic and Integer Factorization
In this paper, we create a systematic and automatic procedure for transforming the integer factorization problem into the problem of solving a system of Boolean equations. Surprisingly, the resulting system of Boolean equations takes on a ”life of its own” and becomes a new type of integer, which we call a generic integer. We then proceed to use the newly found algebraic structure of the ring o...
متن کاملCan approximate number system acuity improve with arithmetic training?
The relationship between approximate number system (ANS) acuity and math performance has recently received a lot of attention. It is still unclear, however, whether the ANS is a prerequisite for math performance or whether training in mathematics could improve ANS acuity. The present study investigated the extent to which mathematics training influences ANS acuity. Participants’ ANS acuity was ...
