Kucian, Karin; Kaufmann, Liane (2009). A developmental model of number representation. Behavioral and Brain Sciences, 32(3-4):340-341.
We delineate a developmental model of number representations. Notably, developmental dyscalculia (DD) is rarely associated with an all-or-none deficit in numerosity processing as would be expected if assuming abstract number representations. Finally, we suggest that the “generalist genes” view might be a plausible – though thus far speculative – explanatory framework for our model of how number representations develop.
