abstract = {While some researchers propose the existence of a special
numerosity sense, others challenge this view and argue that
numerosity is derived from low-level features as density
information. Here, we used size adaptation to manipulate the
apparent area size of an object set without changing its
physical density. After size adaptation, two probe patches
were shown, each of which contained a specific numerosity of
dots. Subjects were required to report, which probe patch
contained more dots. Numerosity perception was compared
between conditions where probe patches were adapted to
appear smaller or larger. Size adaptation affected
numerosity perception in a logarithmic fashion, increasing
with the numerosity in the probe patch. No changes in
density perception were found after size adaptation. Data
suggest that size and density information play only a minor
role in the estimation of low numerosities. In stark
contrast, high numerosities strongly depend on size and
density information. The data reinforce recent claims of
separate mechanism for the perception of low and high
numerosities.},
