In different blocks, participants were asked to decide which digit of a digit pair was numerically larger (numerical comparison task) or physically larger (physical comparison task).
The child is presented with 42 sets of 2 black Arabic digits (1 to 9), which vary in physical size, and is required to indicate by button press which is the numerically larger of the two numerals.
This interaction confirmed that luminance contrast interacted with numerical magnitude: Faster responses occurred for stimuli that were numerically larger (or smaller) and had a large (or small) luminance contrast.
We compared our method with the conventional Sholl analysis and found that our simplified procedure is approximately five times faster permitting numerically larger samples to be analyzed.
For multiparous cows, the increase in feeding activity was facilitated through having longer (40.1 vs. 36.8 min/meal) and numerically larger meals (4.8 vs. 4.6 kg of DM/meal) when milked 3×/d.
Equations showing the dependence of the limiting activity coefficient on the virial coefficient values (B11, B12, and B22) used in their computation indicate that the influence may be considerable for derivatives numerically larger than about 4 × 10−5 mol cm−3.
Finally, the Stroop effect was numerically larger when the close keys were pressed by sticks held at the far separation than when the far keys were pressed by sticks held at the close separation, implicating distance between the keys rather than the hands as the main factor.
A review of the assumptions made in the calculation of ground acceleration figures for their engineering design, reveals that in both cases advisors associated with these projects favored interpretations of lower seismic hazards than the numerically larger hazards assessed by independent scientists.
This is true of the Air Force as well: the current capabilities of the force far exceed the capabilities of the numerically larger Air Force of the 1950s.
Fourth, age-related declines were numerically larger with non-focal vs. focal cues but the difference was not statistically significant, d difference = 0.05 with bootstrap 95% CI = (−0.17, 0.27).
Although the majority of studies have revealed numerically larger priming effects for objects displayed in the same size at study and test, they have rarely found such effects to be statistically significant (but see [30], Experiments 1 & 2).
