Even at 4 months, a labial is a good enough coronal, but not vice versa.
Numerous studies have revealed an asymmetry tied to the perception of coronal place of articulation: participants accept a labial mispronunciation of a coronal target, but not vice versa. Whether or not this asymmetry is based on language-general properties or arises from language-specific experience has been a matter of debate. The current study suggests a bias of the first type by documenting...
متن کاملPitch Affects Estimates of Space but not Vice Versa
The idea that we think about relatively abstract domains (like time) in terms of more concrete domains (like space) but not vice versa can be traced to conceptual metaphor theory. Experiments using verbal and/or visual stimuli suggest a deep ontological basis for space-time asymmetries. Yet vision makes a privileged contribution to spatial processing raising questions about modality. Recently, ...
متن کاملImplicit Spatial Length Modulates Time Estimates, But Not Vice Versa
How are space and time represented in the human mind? Here we evaluate two theoretical proposals, one suggesting a symmetric relationship between space and time (ATOM theory) and the other an asymmetric relationship (metaphor theory). In Experiment 1, Dutch-speakers saw 7-letter nouns that named concrete objects of various spatial lengths (tr. pencil, bench, footpath) and estimated how much tim...
متن کاملRNA world: Catalysis abets binding, but not vice versa
The recent selection of a complex ribozyme capable of general polymerization on a template in trans has revealed how catalysts may have arisen from one another in the RNA world.
متن کاملGrowth Is Good, but Is Not Enough to Improve Nutrition
While it is generally agreed that growth is a necessary precondition for reducing poverty, relatively little is known about the relationship between economic growth and nutrition and, hence, how economic policies can be leveraged to improve nutrition. This chapter argues that growth is good, but is not enough to improve nutrition. During the early stages of development, growth helps reduce the ...
