Abstract

Acquiring robust semantic representations of numbers is crucial for math achievement. However, the learning stage where magnitude becomes automatically elicited by number symbols (i.e., digits from 1 to 9) remains unknown due to the difficulty to measure automatic semantic processing. We used a frequency‐tagging EEG paradigm targeting automatic magnitude processing in children (N = 33, 5–10‐year‐old, predominantly of White or Mixed ethnicity). A stream of digits (1–9) was presented at 10 Hz with small digits as standards, and large digits as deviants at 1.25 Hz (and the reverse). Frequency‐tagged responses to the deviants show that magnitude is a salient semantic feature associated with digits in long‐term memory. Automatic access to magnitude can be measured with EEG in children at the end of preschool.
儿童频率标记脑电图检测的视觉数字符号的意义自动提取
获得稳健的数字语义表示对数学成绩至关重要。然而,由于难以测量自动语义处理,数字符号(即从1到9的数字)自动引出大小的学习阶段仍然未知。我们在儿童(N = 33, 5-10岁,主要是白人或混血儿)中使用了频率标记EEG范式,目标是自动幅度处理。一串数字(1-9)以10 Hz的频率呈现,其中小数字为标准,大数字为1.25 Hz的偏差(反之亦然)。频率标记对偏差的反应表明,幅度是长期记忆中与数字相关的显著语义特征。在学龄前结束时,可以用脑电图测量自动获取幅度。

期刊介绍: As the flagship journal of the Society for Research in Child Development (SRCD), Child Development has published articles, essays, reviews, and tutorials on various topics in the field of child development since 1930. Spanning many disciplines, the journal provides the latest research, not only for researchers and theoreticians, but also for child psychiatrists, clinical psychologists, psychiatric social workers, specialists in early childhood education, educational psychologists, special education teachers, and other researchers. In addition to six issues per year of Child Development, subscribers to the journal also receive a full subscription to Child Development Perspectives and Monographs of the Society for Research in Child Development.
