Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
• People retain a brief visual memory trace.when rapidly estimating numerosity. • This memory allows people to mentally compare, partition, and count dots. • These decision-level processes systematically relate to key behavioural patterns. • Comparing to labelled references shifts both estimates and response variability. • Partitioning produces prime number bias, and counting extends the exact range.
