Abstract
⺠Numbers are represented in a spatial format, the mental number line (MNL). ⺠The MNL has been found to affect space representation. ⺠Here we show that listening to numbers affects visual and haptic line bisection. ⺠Critically, this effect was observed also in patients with left unilateral neglect. ⺠Neglect does not prevent a crossmodal interaction between numbers and space.
