The integrated theory of numerical development posits that a central theme of numerical
development from infancy to adulthood is progressive broadening of the types and ranges of …

Recent research on fractions has broadened and deepened theories of numerical
development. Learning about fractions requires children to recognize that many properties …

Un socle génétique, notre ADN (acide désoxyribonucléique), composé de trois milliards de
paires de nucléotides1, sorte de «gros œuvre» qui détermine la mise en place d'un réseau …

In various cultures and at all spatial scales, humans produce a rich complexity of geometric
shapes such as lines, circles or spirals. Here, we propose that humans possess a language …

A visual scene is perceived in terms of visual objects. Similar ideas have been proposed for
the analogous case of auditory scene analysis, although their hypothesized neural …

Understanding of numerical development is growing rapidly, but the volume and diversity of
findings can make it difficult to perceive any coherence in the process. The integrative theory …

Our human-specific symbolic number skills that underpin science and technology spring
from nonsymbolic set size representations. Despite the significance of numerical …

We tested whether adults can use integrated, analog, magnitude representations to
compare the values of fractions. The only previous study on this question concluded that …

The study of neuronal specialisation in different cognitive and perceptual domains is
important for our understanding of the human brain, its typical and atypical development …

Numerosity, the number of elements in a set, is a most abstract quantitative category. As
such, it is independent of the sensory modality of its elements, ie, supramodal. Because …
