Mirror neurons and embodied simulation in the development of archetypes and self-agency.
30 May 2009
In this paper I explore the role of mirror neurons and motor intentionality in the development of self-agency. I suggest that this will also give us a firmer basis for an emergent view of archetypes, as key components in the development trajectory ...

Research has shown that increasing the number of turns that a route takes through the environment increases estimates of distance--the route angularity effect. This study tested implications of different memory-based explanations of the route ...

Contingency information is information about empirical associations between possible causes and outcomes. In the present research, it is shown that, under some circumstances, there is a tendency for negative contingencies to lead to positive causal ...

Emotive concept nouns and motor responses: attraction or repulsion?
30 May 2009
We carried out three experiments aimed at testing whether hand posture affects the compatibility effect that Chen and Bargh (1999) found between a word's emotional connotation and arm movement direction. In the present study, participants responded ...

In four experiments, we examined free recall of ambiguous sentences with or without corresponding cues to facilitate comprehension, using Auble and Franks's (1978) paradigm to examine effort after meaning (Bartlett, 1932). The ambiguous sentences ...

Two pathways to stimulus encoding in category learning?
30 May 2009
Category learning theorists tacitly assume that stimuli are encoded by a single pathway. Motivated by theories of object recognition, we evaluated a dual-pathway account of stimulus encoding. The part-based pathway establishes mappings between ...

On splitting and merging categories: a regression account of subadditivity.
30 May 2009
Frequency judgments tend to be subadditive: A category's frequency is judged to be lower than the summed frequency of its subcategories. Thus, by splitting or merging categories, subjective frequencies increase or decrease, respectively. We offer an ...
