DOI: 10.1016/j.cognition.2022.105096
Abstract: Numerical illusions may provide a powerful window into the mechanisms that give rise to our visual number sense. Recent research has shown that similarly oriented elements appear more numerous than randomly oriented elements in an… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.cortex.2018.05.021
Abstract: Approximate numerical magnitude (or numerosity) is thought to represent one of the fundamental sensory properties driving perceptual choices. Recent studies indicate that numerosity judgment on a dot array is primarily driven by its numerical magnitude,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.cortex.2020.10.008
Abstract: Humans, and several non-human species, possess the ability to make approximate but reliable estimates of the number of objects around them. Alike other perceptual features, numerosity perception is susceptible to adaptation: exposure to a high… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.neuroimage.2021.117794
Abstract: Perceiving numerosity, i.e. the set size of a group of items, is an evolutionarily preserved ability found in humans and animals. A useful method to infer the neural underpinnings of a given perceptual property is… read more here.

DOI: 10.1017/s0140525x16002235
Abstract: Abstract The target article dismisses all prior work purporting to demonstrate that number is a conceptual primitive. Here, we take issue with their misrepresentation of our recent line of work on numerosity perception, which demonstrates… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41467-021-23785-7
Abstract: Numerosity, the set size of a group of items, helps guide behaviour and decisions. Non-symbolic numerosities are represented by the approximate number system. However, distinct behavioural performance suggests that small numerosities, i.e. subitizing range, are… read more here.

Numerosity: Forward and Reverse Stock Splits

DOI: 10.1080/15427560.2019.1672168
Abstract: Abstract Individuals have a tendency to fixate on large numbers and ignore other relevant information in their decision making process. The numerosity heuristic, a cognitive bias, is the first behavioral hypothesis to explain why investors… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/jcr/ucy078
Abstract: A significant amount of research on numerosity demonstrates that product perceptions are often influenced by the scale on which numerical attribute information is presented. However, fewer studies have examined how self-control is influenced by the… read more here.

Bidirectional examination of the interaction between time and numerosity corroborates that numerosity influences time estimation but not vice versa.

DOI: 10.1111/sjop.12445
Abstract: There has been great interest in the idea that time, number, and space share a common magnitude system. However, only a handful of studies examined bidirectional interaction between time and number and the results varied… read more here.

Early Numerosity Encoding in Visual Cortex Is Not Sufficient for the Representation of Numerical Magnitude

DOI: 10.1162/jocn_a_01320
Abstract: Recent studies have demonstrated that the numerosity of visually presented dot arrays is represented in low-level visual cortex extremely early in latency. However, whether or not such an early neural signature reflects the perceptual representation… read more here.

DOI: 10.1162/jocn_a_01548
Abstract: Our sense of number rests on the activity of neurons that are tuned to the number of items and show great invariance across display formats and modalities. Whether numerosity coding becomes abstracted from local spatial… read more here.
