The faculty of language: what's special about it? (2005, unknown): “…animal species, do not have recursive number systems (or at least did not until recent incursions of Western civilization), but instead quantify objects using a system for estimating analogue amounts and a system for categorizing a finite number of small numerosities (Dehaene, 1997; Wiese, 2004).”
How do symbolic and non-symbolic numerical magnitude processing skills relate to individual differences in children's mathematical skills? A review of evidence from brain and behavior (2013, unknown): “[14,15,57,78,79]), symbolic”
Representation of number in the brain. (2009, background): “This review is structured according to the two major concepts that numerical cognition encompasses: numerical quantity and numerical rank (Wiese 2003).”
Sex differences in intrinsic aptitude for mathematics and science?: a critical review. (2005, background): “The lack of replication is particularly curious, because a large, older literature suggests that male and female infants are equally interested in people and objects (Maccoby & Jacklin, 1974).”
