Mechanical reasoning by mental simulation
Trends in Cognitive Sciences, 2004Recent studies have provided evidence for mental simulation as a strategy in mechanical reasoning. This type of reasoning can be dissociated from reasoning based on descriptive knowledge in that it depends on different abilities and memory stores, is expressed more easily in gesture than in language, exhibits analog properties, and can result in ...

DEVELOPMENTAL LANGUAGE DISABILITY SIMULATING MENTAL RETARDATION
Journal of the American Academy of Child Psychiatry, 1965There are a number of children, estimated at from 5 to 15 per cent of the American grade school population, boys outnumbering girls three to one, who, without any demonstrable evidence of structural damage to the central or peripheral nervous systems, have difficulty in dealing with stimuli on a symbolic level.

Mental simulations and implementation intentions are two self-regulation techniques that further successful goal attainment. The present research examined whether the two mindsets associated with the two techniques differed regarding processing of information. The first two studies indicated that mental simulation induces a mindset associated with more

Hand effects on mentally simulated reaching
Human Movement Science, 2005Within the area of simulated (imagined) versus actual movement research, investigators have discovered that mentally simulated movements, like real actions, are controlled primarily by the hemispheres contralateral to the simulated limb. Furthermore, evidence points to a left-brain advantage for accuracy of simulated movements. With this information it

Mentally Simulated Motor Actions in Children
Developmental Neuropsychology, 2009The present study investigated the effects of age and arm preference on motor imagery ability. Children (groups: 6.5, 8.3, and 10.1 years) and young adults (22.4 years) physically or mentally performed a drawing motor task with the right or the left arm. Imagery ability, accessed by the timing correspondence between executed and imagined movements, was

Suspiciousness, Mental Simulation, and Norm Theory
The Journal of Social Psychology, 1997Seven studies were conducted to replicate the work of Miller, Turnbull, and McFarland (1989), who tested predictions from norm theory (Kahneman & Miller, 1986). The first three studies with stimulus materials identical to those used by Miller et al. failed to confirm that the ease with which the event might be mentally simulated affected the degree of ...

Mentales Training als Simulation
Zeitschrift für Sportpsychologie, 2010Zusammenfassung. Das Mentale Training im Sinne der planmäßig wiederholten Vorstellung einer motorischen Fertigkeit ist ein zentraler Gegenstand der sportwissenschaftlichen Forschung und eine wichtige Trainingsergänzung in der Sportpraxis. Für das bessere Verständnis der Trainingswirkung wird in diesem Beitrag vorgeschlagen, Mentales Training als ...

Philosophical Issues, 1994
it is a necessary condition of one's ascribing states of consciousness, experiences, to oneself, in the way one does, that one should also ascribe them, or be prepared to ascribe them, to others who are not oneself. ... the ascribing phrases are used in just the same sense when the subject is another as when the subject is oneself.

Folk Psychology and Mental Simulation
Royal Institute of Philosophy Supplement, 1998This paper is about the contemporary debate concerning folk psychology–the debate between the proponents of the theory theory of folk psychology and the friends of the simulation alternative. At the outset, we need to ask: What should we mean by this term ‘folk psychology’?

[Simulation of mental illness].
Rivista di psichiatria, 2012The DSM-IV-TR defines the simulation an "intentional production of physical or psychological symptoms false or grossly exaggerated, motivated by external incentives". The first point to consider is that it has a near zero prevalence in the general population, occurring almost exclusively in people imprisoned, treated in Forensic Psychiatric Hospital ...
