A recent study showed that topographic field maps of complex cognitive functions, such as numerosity, exist in the human brain. This is an exciting, novel approach for studying the neural representation of high-level cognition. However, the results can also be explained on the basis of the confounding non-numerical sensory cues of numerosity.
最近的一项研究表明,人类大脑中存在复杂认知功能(如数量)的地形场图。这是一种研究高级认知的神经表示的令人兴奋的新方法。然而,这些结果也可以基于数量的混淆非数值感官线索来解释。
