Preschool children use space, rather than counting, to infer the numerical magnitude of digits: Evidence for a spatial mapping principle
A milestone in numerical development is the acquisition of counting principles which allow children to exactly determine the numerosity of a given set. Moreover, a canonical left-to-right spatial layout for representing numbers also emerges during preschool. These foundational aspects of numerical c...
