Why cardinalities are the “natural” natural numbers
Behavioral and Brain Sciences 31 (6):659-659 (2008)
Abstract
According to Rips et al., numerical cognition develops out of two independent sets of cognitive primitives – one that supports enumeration, and one that supports arithmetic and the concepts of natural numbers. I argue against this proposal because it incorrectly predicts that natural number concepts could develop without prior knowledge of enumerationMy notes
