Abstract

Although there is a large literature demonstrating rapid and accurate enumeration of small sets of simultaneously presented items (i.e., subitizing), it is unclear whether this small numerosity advantage (SNA) can also manifest in sequential enumeration. The present study thus has two aims: to establish a robust processing advantage for small numerosities during sequential enumeration using a rapid serial visual presentation (RSVP) paradigm, and to examine the underlying mechanism for a SNA in sequential enumeration. The results indicate that a small set of items presented in fast sequences can be enumerated accurately with a high precision and a SOA (stimulus onset asynchrony)-sensitive capacity limit, essentially generalizing the large literature on small numerosity advantage from spatial domain to temporal domain. A resource competition hypothesis was proposed and confirmed in further experiments. Specifically, sequential enumeration and other cognitive process, such as visual working memory (VWM), compete for a shared resource of object individuation by which items are segregated as individual entities. These results implied that the limited resource of object individuation can be allocated within time windows of flexible temporal scales during simultaneous and sequential enumerations. Taken together, the present study calls for attention to the dynamic aspect of the enumeration process and highlights the pivotal role of object individuation in underlying a wide range of mental operations, such as enumeration and VWM.

Note, to save space, we did not include the Weber fraction results in Experiment 1–3 which were basically similar to their respective VC results. The similarities between VC- and WF-based results in the present study can be observed in Experiment 4, see Fig. 8 left panel and Fig. 9 bottom right panel.
 
2
Post hoc analyses in each ANOVA of each experiment were conducted using the Bonferroni correction for multiple comparisons.

Here, we used a low-end error of 5%, rather than 0%, to indicate a highly correct enumeration since other response-induced, enumeration-irrelevant random errors (no more than 5%, see Sagi & Julesz, 1985), e.g., pressing a wrong key accidentally even after correctly processing the stimuli, may also contribute to observed error rates.
