对有关婴幼儿和早期儿童量化的文献进行了回顾和综合。在大多数目前的概念化中，早期的量化被认为是基于数字的。然而，现有的文献没有提供明确的证据表明婴儿使用数字来执行数量任务。相反，新的研究表明，量化最初是基于非数字线索，如面积和等高线长度，无论任务是否涉及离散项目。作者讨论了这些发现对早期量化的影响，以及它与后来的数值发展的关系。
A review and synthesis of the literature on quantification in infancy and early childhood is provided. In most current conceptualizations, early quantification is assumed to be number based. However, the extant literature provides no clear-cut evidence that infants use number to perform quantitative tasks. Instead, new research suggests that quantification is initially based on nonnumerical cues, such as area and contour length, whether or not a task involves discrete items. The authors discuss the implications of these findings with respect to early quantification and its relation to later numerical development.
