It’s because I am lazy enough that I took all of these from a single excellent review article on the subject written in the late 1970s. As far as I know, the research since then has confirmed the same points.
Fixed the typo, and thank you, but I find the mental processes generating it interesting. I used “two” instead of “to” right before the number “one”—my guess is that my being about to write “one” semantically primed my concept of “number”, making me write “to” as “two”. If I could think of a way to search, I’d love to see how many of the same two/to error on the Internet occur right around mention of a number.
