{ "pk": 29432, "title": "Children use one-to-one correspondence to establish equality after learning tocount", "subtitle": null, "abstract": "Humans make frequent and powerful use of external symbolsto express number exactly, leading some to question whetherexact number concepts are only available through the acqui-sition of symbolic number systems. Although prior work hasaddressed this longstanding debate on the relationship betweenlanguage and thought in innumerate populations and semi-numerate children, it has frequently produced conflicting re-sults, leaving the origin of exact number concepts unclear.Here, we return to this question by replicating methods pre-viously used to assess exact number knowledge in innumer-ate groups, such as the Pirah ̃a, with a large sample of semi-numerate US toddlers. We replicate previous findings fromboth innumerate cultures and developmental studies showingthat numeracy is linked to the concept of exact number. How-ever, we also find evidence that this knowledge is surprisinglyfragile even amongst numerate children, suggesting that nu-meracy alone does not guarantee a full understanding of exact-ness.", "language": "eng", "license": { "name": "", "short_name": "", "text": null, "url": "" }, "keywords": [ { "word": "Number; language; cognitive development; con-ceptual development" } ], "section": "Numerosity", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/6tz180dn", "frozenauthors": [ { "first_name": "Rose", "middle_name": "M.", "last_name": "Schneider", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "University of California San Diego", "department": "" }, { "first_name": "David", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Barner", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "University of California San Diego", "department": "" } ], "date_submitted": null, "date_accepted": null, "date_published": "2020-01-01T18:00:00Z", "render_galley": null, "galleys": [ { "label": "PDF", "type": "pdf", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/cognitivesciencesociety/article/29432/galley/19292/download/" } ] }
