Beyond magnitude: Judging ordinality of symbolic number is unrelated to magnitude comparison and independently relates to individual differences in arithmetic
C Goffin, D Ansari - Cognition, 2016 - Elsevier
In the field of numerical cognition, ordinality, or the sequence of numerals, has received
much less attention than cardinality, or the number of items in a set. Therefore it is unclear …
