Verbal-spatial and visuospatial coding of number-space interactions.

摘要: A tight correspondence has been postulated between the representations of number and space. The spatial numerical association response codes (SNARC) effect, which reflects observation that people respond faster with left-hand side to small numbers right-hand large numbers, is regarded as strong evidence for this correspondence. dominant explanation SNARC effect it results from visuospatial coding magnitude (e.g., mental line hypothesis). In a series experiments, we demonstrated only part story verbal-spatial influences processes have believed be purely visuospatial. Additionally, when both accounts were directly contrasted, was observed in absence coding. Relations other number-space interactions implications tasks are discussed.
