It is now clear that most animals, including humans, possess an ability to rapidly estimate
number. Some have questioned whether this ability arises from dedicated numerosity …

Humans, including infants, and many other species have a capacity for rapid, nonverbal
estimation of numerosity. However, the mechanisms for number perception are still not clear; …

Shape is an interesting property of objects because it is used in ordinary discourse in ways
that seem to have little connection to how it is typically defined in mathematics. The present …

Human early visual cortex response amplitudes monotonically increase with numerosity
(object number), regardless of object size and spacing. However, numerosity is typically …

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 …

Humans share with many animals a number sense, the ability to estimate rapidly the
approximate number of items in a scene. Recent work has shown that like many other …

Psychophysical studies have shown that numerosity is a sensory attribute susceptible to
adaptation. Neuroimaging studies have reported that, at least for relatively low numbers …

Although luminance is the main determinant of pupil size, the amplitude of the pupillary light
response is also modulated by stimulus appearance and attention. Here we ask whether …

Humans and other species have perceptual mechanisms dedicated to estimating
approximate quantity: a sense of number. Here we show a clear interaction between self …

The ability to handle approximate quantities, or number sense, has been recurrently linked
to mathematical skills, although the nature of the mechanism allowing to extract numerical …
