Who theorised the 5 principles of counting: One-to-one principle, stable-ordering principle, cardinal principle, abstraction principle, and order-irrelevant principle?

Select the correct answer(s).

(0/0)

Explanation

Principles 1 to 3 are 'how to' principles for counting. Counting begins as a linguistic routine. Emerges at 2.5 years of age. Continuous improvement between 3 to 5 and beyond.

How old are human infants when they are able to discriminate 8 vs. 16 dots and 16 vs. 32 dots, but fail to discriminate with 8 vs. 12 and 16 vs. 24 which correspond to a 2:3 ratio? (Xu & Spelke, 2000)

Select the correct answer(s).

(0/0)

Explanation

10 month olds succeed with a 2:3 ratio but not a 4:5 ratio (Xu & Arriaga, 2007)
