More recent approaches to terminology incorporate premises from cognitive linguistics and sociolinguistics in their theoretical framework. Although such approaches range from general theoretical frameworks to more practical models based on a specific cognitive theory, none provides explicit guidelines on how to incorporate theoretical findings into a multi–domain term base, such as Struna. Stru...

This paper investigates the conceptualization of emotional release from a cognitive linguistics perspective (Cognitive Metaphor Theory). The metaphor weeping is a means of liberating contained emotions is grounded in universal embodied cognition and is reflected in linguistic expressions in English and Spanish. Lexicalization patterns which encapsulate this conceptualization i...

in brain areas usually associated with both the trigger sensation and the secondary sensation. For example, activation in left colour-sensitive cortex occurred in word– colour synaesthetes hearing words [14] but not in nonsynaesthetes trained to associate colour with words [15]. Many issues concerning the anatomy underlying information processing in synaesthesia remain to be elucidated but this...

This article analyzes the territory in which battle of strategic narratives is fought—the cognitive domain—and nature itself—cognitive warfare. It exposes three asymmetries between United Kingdom, Russia and China. These are: (1) maturity warfare doctrine; (2) ease with can be waged vice defended against; (3) that illiberal states enjoy greater freedom maneuver domain than their liberal competi...

What role does domain-general cognitive control play in understanding linguistic input? Although much evidence has suggested that domain-general cognitive control and working memory resources are sometimes recruited during language comprehension, many aspects of this relationship remain elusive. For example, how frequently do cognitive control mechanisms get engaged when we understand language?...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Patients with ischemic stroke are at risk for developing vascular cognitive impairment ranging from mild impairments to dementia. MRI findings of infarction, white matter hyperintensities, and global cerebral atrophy have been implicated in the development of vascular cognitive impairment. The present study investigated regional gray matter volume differences between pati...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) and Addenbrooke's Cognitive Examination-Revised (ACE-R) are proposed as short cognitive tests for use after stroke, but there are few published validations against a neuropsychological battery. We studied the relationship between MoCA, ACE-R, Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) and mild cognitive impairment (MCI) in patients with ...
