Containers, mental space and psychodynamics
British Journal of Medical Psychology, 1996The concept of the container has a place within cognitive science as well as within psychodynamic theories. Cognitive semantics has shown that many metaphors giving meaning to daily life‐events use the container as a basic reference point. Psychoanalytic theory, most notably, Freud's psychosexual developmental model, illustrates how the container of ...

The Mental Space of Pitch Heighta
Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2005Abstract: Through stimulus‐response compatibility we tested whether sound frequency (pitch height) elicits a mental spatial representation. Musically untrained and, mostly, trained participants were shown a stimulus‐response compatibility effect (Spatial‐Musical Association of Response Codes or SMARC effect).

Mapping the Mental Space of Rectangles
Perception, 1998The cognitive structure of a shape space—the space of rectangles—is explored by a nonmetric scaling technique. Our experiment was designed to extract the major transformational paths or ‘modes’ that characterize the mental shape space. Earlier studies of rectangle similarities using multidimensional scaling have provided conflicting evidence about ...

Stressed Spaces: Mental Health and Architecture
HERD: Health Environments Research & Design Journal, 2013OBJECTIVE: To present a comprehensive review of the research literature on the effects of the architectural designs of mental health facilities on the users. BACKGROUND: Using a team of cross-disciplinary researchers, this review builds upon previous reviews on general and geriatric healthcare design in order to focus on research undertaken for mental ...

Mental space maps into the future
Cognition, 2018It has been suggested that our mind anticipates the future to act in a goal-directed, event-oriented manner. Here we asked whether peripersonal hand space, that is, the space surrounding one's hands, is dynamically and adaptively mapped into the future while planning and executing a goal-directed object manipulation.

Let us for the sake of clearness begin, not with the memory of ourselves, but the memory of objects, that is to say, of things or events which we have experienced before, and in remembering are aware that we have so experienced them. This is the fully developed kind of memory, to which other acts of so-called memory are only approximations.

Mental number space in three dimensions
Neuroscience & Biobehavioral Reviews, 2015A large number of experimental findings from neuroscience and experimental psychology demonstrated interactions between spatial cognition and numerical cognition. In particular, many researchers posited a horizontal mental number line, where small numbers are thought of as being to the left of larger numbers.

Conditional constructions have long fascinated linguists, grammarians and philosophers. In this pioneering new study, Barbara Dancygier and Eve Sweetser offer a new descriptive framework for the study of conditionality, broadening the range of richly described conditional constructions.

Cognitive mapping in mental time travel and mental space navigation
Cognition, 2016The ability to imagine ourselves in the past, in the future or in different spatial locations suggests that the brain can generate cognitive maps that are independent of the experiential self in the here and now. Using three experiments, we asked to which extent Mental Time Travel (MTT; imagining the self in time) and Mental Space Navigation (MSN ...
