Citations in the corpus
- Finger Counting Habits in Middle Eastern and Western Individuals: An Online Survey (2011, background): “Support for this notion came from the finding that members of right-to-left writing cultures, like Arabic-speaking monolinguals,5 showed different SNARC effects compared to native speakers of Western languages (Zebian, 2005).”
- Visualizing Thought (2011, background): “The mental number line has an implicit spatial ordering evident in speed of calculations, left-toright in readers of languages that go from left to right, and the opposite for languages that go from right to left and absent in illiterates (e.g., Dehaene, 1997; Zebian, 2005).”
- On the Cognitive Link between Space and Number: A Meta-Analysis of the SNARC Effect (2008, methodology): “The null effect for naming tasks is mainly due to the results of Zebian (2005), who found no SNARC effect for Arabic speaking participants.”
- The Cultural Number Line: A Review of Cultural and Linguistic Influences on the Development of Number Processing (2011, background): “They showed a significant reversed SNARC effect: It took them longer to respond when the larger of the two numbers was on the right side (Zebian, 2005).”
- Behavioral self-regulation and executive function both predict visuomotor skills and early academic achievement (2014, background): “…of letters and numbers is related to both numeracy and literacy development (Dehaene, 1992; Puranik & Lonigan, 2012; Puranik, Lonigan, & Kim, 2011; Zebian, 2005), with children with better VMS showing higher math and literacy scores (Cameron et al., 2012; Grissmer et al., 2010; McPhillips &…”
