Universal and uniquely human factors in spontaneous number perception
Perception of numerical quantities has been demonstrated in humans and animals; however, whether this is a natural ability is not clear. Here the authors show that human children and adults as well as monkeys spontaneously use number over surface area to categorize dot stimuli and this preference is...

description |
Perception of numerical quantities has been demonstrated in humans and animals; however, whether this is a natural ability is not clear. Here the authors show that human children and adults as well as monkeys spontaneously use number over surface area to categorize dot stimuli and this preference is enhanced with numerical literacy. |
