Neo-Fregeanism naturalized. The role of the one-to-one correspondence in numerical cognition

Research output: Contribution to JournalArticleAcademicpeer-review

Abstract

Rips et al. argue that the construction of math schemas roughly similar to the Dedekind/Peano axioms may be necessary for arriving at arithmetical skills. However, they neglect the neo-Fregean alternative axiomatization of arithmetic, based on Hume's principle. Frege arithmetic is arguably a more plausible start for a top-down approach in the psychological study of mathematical cognition than Peano arithmetic. © 2008 Cambridge University Press.
