The common magnitude code underlying numerical and size processing for action but not for perception.
Article in Experimental brain research, 2009. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 15 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The interaction between numbers and action-related process has received increasing attention in the literature of numerical cognition. In the current study, two dual-task experiments were conducted to explore the interaction among numerical, prehension, and perceptual color/size judgments. The results revealed the commonality and distinctness of the magnitude representations that are involved in these tasks. Specifically, a photograph of a graspable object with a superimposed Arabic digit was presented in each trial. Participants were required to first judge the parity of the digit with a manual response while simultaneously planning a subsequent vocal response pertaining to the depicted object. When parity and action judgments were performed close in time, the compatibility effect between the numerical magnitude of the digit and the appropriate action (pinch vs. clutch) for the object was demonstrated in both manual and vocal responses. In contrast, such compatibility effect was absent when parity judgment was coupled with color-related or perceptual size judgment. The findings of the current study support the existence of a common magnitude code underlying numerical and non-numerical dimensions for action-related purposes, as proposed by the ATOM model (Walsh in Trends Cogn Sci 7:483-488, 2003). Furthermore, based on the selective presence of the compatibility effect, we argue that the interaction among different quantity dimensions conforms to the "dorsal-action and ventral-perception" organizational principle of the human brain.
