A memory-based account of automatic numerosity processing.
We investigated the mechanisms responsible for the automatic processing of the numerosities represented by digits in the size congruity effect (Henik & Tzelgov, 1982). The algorithmic model assumes that relational comparisons of digit magnitudes (e.g., larger than {8,2}) create this effect. If so, congruity effects ought to require two digits. Memory-based models assume that associations betwee...
متن کاملAutomatic non-symbolic numerosity processing in preschoolers
There has recently been an increasing focus on the development of automatic processing of numerical magnitude. However, little effort has been made to explore automatic access to non-symbolic numerical magnitude in preschool children. In experiment 1, we used a non-symbolic physical size comparison task in 3- to 6-year-olds to examine developmental changes and the effect of ratio and counting p...
متن کاملA memory-based account of retrospective revaluation.
We adapt an instance model of human memory, Minerva 2, to simulate retrospective revaluation. In the account, memory preserves the events of individual trials in separate traces. A probe presented to memory contacts all traces in parallel and causes each to become active. The information retrieved from memory is the sum of the activated traces. Learning is modelled as a process of cued-recall; ...
متن کاملAutomatic Number Processing is Both Memory-Based and Algorithm-Based
Memory-based versus algorithm-based processing While the automatic processing of numbers is widely accepted, the underlying mechanisms are still under discussion. The memory-based view states that automatic processing involves the retrieval of a single piece of information from memory (Logan, 1988). On the other hand, the algorithm-based view states that unconscious algorithms can be automatica...
متن کاملMemory-based automaticity in the discrimination of visual numerosity.
In the development of memory-based models of automaticity, it is crucial to specify the nature of the memory representation. Seven experiments with 94 students use a counting task to determine whether a feature (i.e., identity, color, or orientation) is explicitly represented in memory. It is assumed that the degree of transfer to a pattern differing on one feature is determined by that feature...
