Development of SNARC and distance effects and their relation to mathematical and visuospatial abilities.
The current experiment measured symbolic SNARC (Spatial-Numeric Association of Response Codes) and distance effects in school-aged children and investigated the relation between these measures and visuospatial skills and mathematics ability. In the experiment, 6-, 7-, and 8-year-olds performed a magnitude-relevant SNARC task, in which they indicated whether a target number was less or greater t...
متن کاملThe Cognitive Mechanisms of the SNARC Effect: An Individual Differences Approach
Access to mental representations of smaller vs. larger number symbols is associated with leftward vs. rightward spatial locations, as represented on a number line. The well-replicated SNARC effect (Spatial-Numerical Association of Response Codes) reveals that simple decisions about small numbers are facilitated when stimuli are presented on the left, and large numbers facilitated when on the ri...
متن کاملFrom SNARC Effect to SELF-SNARC Effect: Evidence from Chinese Character Numbers and Arabic Numbers
The presence of the SNARC effect and the SELF-SNARC effect in the processing of various numeric types and how they evolved through representation guidance were investigated through two experiments. The study identified the typical SNARC effect in various numeric types and examined the reversal of the SELF-SNARC effect based on different numeric types and the hypnotic self representation mode. F...
متن کاملThe hunt for SNARC
The SNARC effect specifically relates small magnitudes to the left hand side and larger magnitudes to the right hand side (e.g. Dehaene et al., 1990; Dehaene et al., 1993). It is certain that cultural characteristics define the SNARC effect: In western cultures small and large numbers are coded in a left-right direction while in Arabic countries magnitude information is coded from right to left...
متن کاملSpatial–Numerical and Ordinal Positional Associations Coexist in Parallel
There is evidence for a systematic association of numbers and space. A prominent finding supporting this notion is the spatial-numerical association of response codes (SNARC) effect describing relatively faster responses to smaller numbers using a left-hand key and to larger numbers using a right-hand key. However, the assumption of the SNARC effect reflecting spatial-numerical associations was...
