Folk taxonomies and folk theories: The case of Williams syndrome
Behavioral and Brain Sciences, 1998Work with people with Williams syndrome is reviewed relative to Atran's claim that the universality of taxonomic rank in the animal and plant domains derives from a biological construal of generic species. From this work it is argued that a biological construal of animals is not necessary for the construction of the adult taxonomy of animals and ...

Plant names and folk taxonomies: Frameworks for ethnosemiotic inquiry
Semiotica, 2007Examining the rich naming systems associated with plants, this paper suggests how ethnobiological (specifically, ethnobotanical) inquiry can benefit from greater cooperation and synergy among fields concerned with naming practices, including onomastics, lexicography, cognitive anthropology, and cognitive linguistics.

Folk Arguments, Numerical Taxonomy and Case-Based Reasoning
2008Experts who narrate their knowledge in case-like form often express significant parts of it in folk arguments ( considerations for and against alternative recommendations where informal judgment is involved.

Linguistic pit-falls in upper Zairean folk-taxonomy research
Journal d'agriculture traditionnelle et de botanique appliquée, 1983Une partie de la nomenclature botanique locale publiée dans une Flore centre-africaine traitant des plantes du Haut-Zaïre est étudiée afin d'évaluer la valeur linguistique des « noms » suggérés comme équivalents aux taxa linnéens. On constate que le chercheur en ethnobotanique qui n'a pas une connaissance approfondie de la langue locale risque de se ...
