ABSTRACT Research into numerical cognition has yielded results that could have a positive impact on the field of education through the implementation of the models that focus on the development of mathematical skills. In Uruguay, the emergence of studies into numerical cognition has a neuropsychological and experimental tradition. This article describes the main research carried out over the past 30 years using these two approaches, and it describes their results and possible implications. Finally, the importance of research into numerical cognition, the need to progress researchers’ formation and the relevance of continuous interaction with educational institutions to enrich this field of knowledge and foster implementation in the classroom are discussed.
