The common element effect of abstract-to-abstract mapping in language processing

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2016
Since the 1990s, there has been much discussion about how concepts are learned and processed. Many researchers believe that the experienced bodily states (i.e., embodied experiences) should be an important factor that affects concepts’ learning and use ...

The Semantic Richness of Abstract Concepts

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2012
We contrasted the predictive power of three measures of semantic richness—number of features (NF), contextual dispersion (CD), and a novel measure of number of semantic neighbors (NSN)—for a large set of concrete and abstract concepts on lexical decision

Pacifier Overuse and Conceptual Relations of Abstract and Emotional Concepts

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2017
This study explores the impact of the extensive use of an oral device since infancy (pacifier) on the acquisition of concrete, abstract, and emotional concepts.

The influence of conceptual concreteness on the reading acquisition and integration of novel words into semantic memory via thematic relations

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2023
Plenty of studies have been conducted to reveal neurocognitive underpinnings of conceptual representation. Compared with that of concrete concepts, the neurocognitive correlates of abstract concepts remain elusive.

Intangible features extraction in the processing of abstract concepts: Evidence from picture-word priming.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
Over the last decade, hypotheses ranging from linguistic symbol processing to embodiment have been formulated to account for the content and mechanisms responsible for the representation of abstract concepts. Results of recent studies have suggested that

An fMRI Dataset for Concept Representation with Semantic Feature Annotations

open access: yesScientific Data, 2022
The neural representation of concepts is a focus of many cognitive neuroscience studies. Prior works studying concept representation with neural imaging data have been largely limited to concrete concepts. The use of relatively small and constrained sets
