The interplay of sensory and motoric information on processing emotions in narrative texts
This study examines the comprehension of characters' emotional states in written narrative texts. Recent theories of embodied cognition suggest that emotions are grounded in somatosensory information involving 'reexperiencing' of actions and perceptions. In addition, views of graded embodied cognition suggest that there are levels of the embodiment of language, focusing on how perceptual and motor information interact during text comprehension. I…

Emotion metaphors in Spanish retain aspects of spatial meaning
Previous work has shown that the abstract use of the spatial prepositions in and on retains spatial meaning, such as containment and support that includes the control relationship between a located object (the figure) and a reference object (the landmark/ground) ( Feist & Gentner, 2003 ; Talmy, 1983 ). We extend these ideas to the case of metaphorical descriptions of emotion in Spanish—some of them featuring the emotion as a located entity in the…
Metaphorical conceptualization of emotion in Spanish
Over the last two decades, accumulating work in cognitive science and cognitive linguistics has provided evidence that language shapes thought. Conceptual metaphor theory proposes that the conceptual structure of emotions emerges through metaphorization from concrete concepts such as spatial orientation and physical containment. Primary metaphors for emotions have been described in a wide range of languages. Here we show, in Study 1, the results …
Frequency Affects Object Relative Clause Processing
The processing difficulty of nested grammatical structure has been explained by different psycholinguistic theories. Here I provide corpus and behavioral evidence in favor of usage-based models, focusing on the case of object relative clauses in Spanish as a first language. A corpus analysis of spoken Spanish reveals that, as in English, the overwhelming majority of object relative clauses are pronominal. Spanish allows flexibility of order of su…
Biological Adaptations for Functional Features of Language in the Face of Cultural Evolution
Although there may be no true language universals, it is nonetheless possible to discern several family resemblance patterns across the languages of the world. Recent work on the cultural evolution of language indicates the source of these patterns is unlikely to be an innate universal grammar evolved through biological adaptations for arbitrary linguistic features. Instead, it has been suggested that the patterns of resemblance emerge because la…
