Descriere

Explores embodied cognition from an experimental psychology perspective. Rebecca-Fincher Kiefer examines a wealth of evidence, including behavioural studies supported by neuroscientific findings, that suggest that our knowledge of the world is grounded in the neural pathways that were used when we initially experienced those concepts.
