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
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...
Different sources of the numerical comparison size effect - Memory & Cognition
In symbolic number comparison tasks, the numerical distance and size effects are largely influenced by the statistical properties of the stimuli. Here, we tested whether nonsymbolic number comparison ...

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.
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
Optimizing a design for correlation may be bad for a design for comparing groups or conditions. And the other way around. osf.io/mu896
The evaluation method of the Give-a-Number task matters. See a comparison of different methods in doi.org/10.23668/psy...
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...

Changes to Moderation at PsyArXiv Preprints
As you may be aware, a large number of previously-public preprints posted on PsyArXiv have become inaccessible in the past 24 hours. We know this is disruptive to many people and organizations who …

That's exactly the research we need for AI! Glad to see work like that! 👍
What complexity of algorithms can AI compute? In a new paper with colleagues at IBM Research, we explore how circuit complexity theory can help quantify the degree of algorithmic generalization in AI systems. www.nature.com/articles/s42... @natmachintell.nature.com #ML #AI #MLSky 1/n

New paper! Multi-year controlled #SciComm experiment finds that tweeting about published papers does NOT lead to an increase in citations of those papers. Led by @trevorabranch.bsky.social , featuring me @melissacmarquez.bsky.social @solomonrdavid.bsky.social @danirabaiotti.bsky.social & others 🧪
Controlled experiment finds no detectable citation bump from Twitter promotion
Multiple studies across a variety of scientific disciplines have shown that the number of times that a paper is shared on Twitter (now called X) is correlated with the number of citations that paper r...
