Beyond slots and resources: grounding cognitive concepts in neural dynamics.
Research over the past decade has suggested that the ability to hold information in visual working memory (VWM) may be limited to as few as three to four items. However, the precise nature and source of these capacity limits remains hotly debated. Most commonly, capacity limits have been inferred from studies of visual change detection, in which performance declines systematically as a function...
متن کاملFor a cognitive neuroscience of concepts: Moving beyond the grounding issue.
Cognitive neuroscience research on conceptual knowledge often is discussed with respect to "embodiment" or "grounding." We tried to disentangle at least three distinct claims made using these terms. One of these, the view that concepts are entirely reducible to sensory-motor representations, is untenable and diminishing in the literature. A second is the view that concepts and sensory-motor rep...
متن کاملThe Cognitive and Social Grounding of Large-Scale Knowledge Resources
We describe the general approach of a sub-project seeking to develop cognitively and socially adequate knowledge resources. Specifically, the present paper outlines a text file acquisition system that (a) allows any users to submit their digitized versions of literary texts, (b) improve their contributions at any later opportunity, and (c) encourages all users to evaluate contributed text files...
متن کاملGrounding Concepts
mentators might still devise a plausible Schopenhauerian answer to these worries, but until one is given, I remain dubious about the ‘tremendous practical and spiritual value’ of Schopenhauer’s view. My reservations, however, do not mitigate what I see as the tremendous success and the usefulness of this guidebook. Wicks’s text, like Jacquette’s provides an engaging, well-argued and insightful ...
متن کاملCognitive and Neural Foundations of Concepts
Concepts in long-term memory are important building blocks of human cognition and form the basis for language, thought and action. Traditionally, concepts are specified as abstract mental entities different from perceptual or motor systems. From this perspective, sensory or motor features of objects and events are transformed into a common amodal representational format, in which original modal...
