“…For example, three-year-old children violate the one-one principle by skipping or double-counting items, or by using the same numeral twice in a count (Baroody & Price, 1983;Briars & Siegler, 1984;Frye, Braisby, Lowe, Maroudas, & Nicholls, 1989;Fuson, 1988;Miller, Smith, Zhu, & Zhang, 1995;Schaeffer et al, 1974;Wagner & Walters, 1982). Children also frequently violate the stable-order principle by producing different number-word sequences at different times (Baroody & Price, 1983;Frye et al, 1989;Fuson et al, 1982;Fuson, Secada, & Hall, 1983;Miller et al, 1995;Wagner & Walters, 1982). These findings have led many observers to conclude that the how-to-count principles, rather than being understood intuitively, are in fact learned gradually.…”
