Abstract

To understand the number sense, we need to understand its function. We argue that numerosity estimation is fundamental not only for perception, but also preparation and control of action. We outline experiments that link numerosity estimation with action, pointing to a generalized numerosity system that serves both perception and action preparation.

摘要

为了理解数量感，我们需要了解它的功能。我们认为，数量估计不仅对感知，而且对动作的准备和控制都很重要。我们概述了将数量估计与动作联系起来的实验，指出了一个通用的数量系统，它既为感知服务，也为动作准备服务。
