The Importance of Magnitude Information in Numerical Processing: Evidence from the SNARC Effect
Abstract Models of the numerical cognitive system differ in the importance they attach to magnitude information in numerical processing. In this paper, the necessity of addressing a central semantic magnitude system in arabic number processing is evaluated by looking at the SNARC-effect (Dehaene, Bossini, & Giraux, 1993). The existence of …
