In a number comparison task, the size effect is, in fact, at least three distinct size effects with three corresponding generators. See more details about the anatomy of the number comparison size effect at doi.org/10.3758/s134...
The SNARC effect may work only with symbolic numbers. It seems to work with nonsymbolic numbers when the task requires symbolic responses, such as "smaller"-"larger", but not without them. doi.org/10.1037/xhp0... or www.thenumberworks.org/discrete_sem...
Different evaluation methods may categorize subset-knowers as CP-knowers and the other way around. Picture below: how various methods categorize children differently. See details in psyarxiv.com/cz9ug
The evaluation method of the Give-a-Number task matters. See a comparison of different methods in doi.org/10.23668/psy...
The Approximate Number System account assumes an imprecise mechanism behind the precise symbolic number comparison. This leads to various contradictions in the model. Read more about it at osf.io/6m4zw.
You can still submit your presentation about data analysis and statistics in behavioral and related sciences to our local international symposium in Pécs, Hungary, in September 2026. www.cogstat.org/best_approac...
Can you tell which line below is longer? No? Then maybe humans cannot discriminate similar numbers with an approximate mental mechanism either. Read more about it at osf.io/6m4zw
Optimizing a design for correlation may be bad for a design for comparing groups or conditions. And the other way around. osf.io/mu896
That's exactly the research we need for AI!
Glad to see work like that! 👍
