Defever, Emmy; Sasanguie, Delphine; Gebuis, Titia; Reynvoet, Bert – Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 2011
How people process and represent magnitude has often been studied using number comparison tasks. From the results of these tasks, a comparison distance effect (CDE) is generated, showing that it is easier to discriminate two numbers that are numerically further apart (e.g., 2 and 8) compared with numerically closer numbers (e.g., 6 and 8).…
