The lexical processing of abstract and concrete nouns

Brain Research, 2009
Recent activation studies have suggested different neural correlates for processing concrete and abstract words. However, the precise localization is far from being defined. One reason for the heterogeneity of these results could lie in the extreme variability of experimental paradigms, ranging from explicit semantic judgments to lexical decision tasks

Recognition of verbs, abstract nouns and concrete nouns from the left and right visual half-fields

Neuropsychologia, 1976
Abstract Visual half-field recognition was evaluated for familiar and unfamiliar verbs, abstract nouns, and concrete nouns. The familiar abstract nouns showed a significantly greater right visual-half-field superiority than did the familiar concrete nouns; however, no difference in asymmetry was found for the unfamiliar abstract and concrete nouns ...

The neural representation of concrete nouns: what's right and what's left?

Trends in Cognitive Sciences, 2004
In a recent paper, Fiebach and Friederici review the literature in the functional imaging of abstract and concrete nouns, and present an fMRI study. They conclude that (a) there is no evidence for a right hemispheric imaginal system that is specifically associated with concrete nouns, and (b) there is evidence supporting aspects of both the context ...

Hemispheric Asymmetry in Accessing Word Meanings: Concrete and Abstract Nouns

Perceptual and Motor Skills, 2002
The present experiments investigated hemispheric differences in the brain in accessing concrete and abstract word meanings. For this purpose, an automatic semantic priming paradigm was used with a short stimulus onset asynchrony between prime and target (250 msec.) as well as a low proportion of related trials. (20%). Analysis showed that for concrete

Affordance norms for 2825 concrete nouns

Behavior Research Methods
Objects are commonly described based on their relations to other objects (e.g., associations, semantic similarity, etc.) or their physical features (e.g., birds have wings, feathers, etc.). However, objects can also be described in terms of their actionable properties (i.e., affordances), which reflect interactive relations between actors and objects ...

Concreteness and relational effects on recall of adjective–noun pairs.

Canadian Journal of Experimental Psychology / Revue canadienne de psychologie expérimentale, 2000
Extending previous research on the problem, we studied the effects of concreteness and relatedness of adjective-noun pairs on free recall, cued recall, and memory integration. Two experiments varied the attributes in paired associates lists or sentences.
