Computational Grounded Cognition: A New Alliance between Grounded Cognition and Computational Modeling [PDF]
Grounded theories assume that there is no central module for cognition. According to this view, all cognitive phenomena, including those considered the province of amodal cognition such as reasoning, numeric and language processing, are ultimately ...

Affordances, adaptive tool use and grounded cognition [PDF]
The role of affordances In our opinion the model would be improved if affordance for action mechanisms were integrated: The potentiation of motor interactions consistent with the conventional use of a perceived tool (Bub et al., 2008). Affordances would easily explain the mechanism underlying the quick choice of the most appropriate tool when an action

Empirically grounding grounded cognition: the case of color. [PDF]
Grounded cognition theories hold that the neural states involved in experiencing objects play a direct functional role in representing and accessing object knowledge from memory. However, extant data marshaled to support this view are also consistent with an opposing view that perceptuo-motor activations occur only following access to knowledge from ...

Issues in Grounded Cognition and How to Solve Them – the Minimalist Account [PDF]
The field of grounded cognition is concerned with how concepts are represented by re-activation of the bodily modalities. Considerable empirical work supports this core tenet, but the field is rife with meta-theoretical issues which prevent meaningfully ...

The mind-body relationship in psychotherapy: Grounded cognition as an explanatory framework [PDF]
As a discipline, psychology is defined by its location in the ambiguous space between mind and body, but theories underpinning the application of psychology in psychotherapy are largely silent on this fundamental metaphysical issue.

De-anthropomorphizing the mind: life as a cognitive spectrum in a unified framework for biological minds [PDF]
Cognition, sentience, intelligence, awareness, and mind are often treated as distinct phenomena that emerge only at higher levels of biological organization, typically associated with nervous systems or human cognition.

Development and validation of the embodied cognition scale for Chinese university students [PDF]
IntroductionEmbodied cognition theory emphasizes that cognition is grounded in bodily movement, perception, and interaction with the environment rather than being purely symbolic or abstract. However, most existing embodied cognition measures are Western-
