Description

This volume is a collection of all papers published in Volume One of the journal "Mathematical Cognition". The aim of the journal is to provide a forum for explorations of how we understand mathematics and how we acquire and use mathematical concepts. The journal encourages an interdisciplinary approach to the field, and publishes advances in the study of the mental representation and use of mathematical concepts from a range of disciplines.; This first volume features contributions from cognitive psychology, developmental psychology, philosophy, neuroscience, education, computational modelling, and neuropsychology.
