Two experiments are presented that use tasks common in research in numerical cognition with young adults and older adults as subjects. In these tasks, one or two arrays of dots are displayed, and subjects decide whether there are more or fewer dots of one kind than another. Results show that older adults, relative to young adults, tend to rely more on the perceptual feature, area, in making numerosity judgments when area is correlated with numerosity. Also, convex hull unexpectedly shows different effects depending on the task (being either correlated with numerosity or anticorrelated). Accuracy and response time (RT) data are interpreted with the integration of the diffusion decision model with models for the representation of numerosity. One model assumes that the representation of the difference depends on the difference between the numerosities and that standard deviations ( SD s) increase linearly with numerosity, and the other model assumes a log representation with constant SD s. The representational models have coefficients that are applied to differences between two numerosities to produce drift rates and SD s in drift rates in the decision process. The two tasks produce qualitatively different patterns of RTs: One model fits results from one task, but the results are mixed for the other task. The effects of age on model parameters show a modest decrease in evidence driving the decision process, an increase in the duration of processes outside the decision process (nondecision time), and an increase in the amount of evidence needed to make a decision (boundary separation).
