  • We briefly describe the current understanding of spatial-numerical associations (SNAs) before identifying aspects of Z&P’s study that might explain their failure to replicate the attentional cueing effect of numbers

  • In addition to two successful replications acknowledged by Z&P, number-induced attentional biases were found by several other labs

Summary

Introduction

Edited by: Roberta Sellaro, Leiden University, Netherlands Reviewed by: Mario Bonato, Ghent University, Belgium Barbara Treccani, University of Sassari, Italy. A commentary on Number-induced shifts in spatial attention: a replication study by Zanolie, K., and Pecher, D. Fischer et al (2003) discovered that noninformative central numerical cues induce attention shifts: In accordance with a spatially organized mental number line, small, and large numbers facilitated detection of targets in the left and right visual hemifields, respectively.
