Comparative judgements and higher cognitive processes in human numerosity estimation

2024-12-19

Abstract excerpt

<p>Perceiving the number of objects in a scene is fundamental to human behaviour and mathematics. Standard numerosity experiments assume that brief stimuli block higher cognitive processes, implying that the signature characteristics of human numerosity estimation—such as exact enumeration of small numbers, underestimation of large numbers, and scalar variability (Weber’s law)—arise from specialised sensory repres...
