What we mean when we say semantic
Tulving characterized semantic memory as a vast repository of meaning that underlies language and many other cognitive processes. This perspective on lexical and conceptual knowledge galvanized a new era of research undertaken by numerous fields, each with their own idiosyncratic methods and terminology. For example, “concept” has different meanings in philosophy, linguistics, and psychology. As such, many fundamental constructs used to delineate…
Mapping cognition across lab and daily life using Experience-Sampling
Understanding cognition in daily life depends on mapping mechanistic accounts from the lab onto real world behaviour. • Applying PCA to experience sampling generated a ‘thought space’ that integrated data from both contexts in an unbiased manner. • The ‘thought space’ effectively organised activities in daily life and tasks in the lab with corresponding features. • Our study shows experience sampling supports richer models of cognition that encom…
Unexpected Connections between International Studies and Theatre
Some of the many beautiful elements about theatre that make the art form so impactful are the multitude of lived experiences, questions, and concepts that are able to be shared on stages throughout the world. Part of the magic of theatre is how it is able to transport the audience into the world the company has created and how it is able to leave the audience pondering the themes, questions, and morals expressed in the show long after the curtain…
Graded and sharp transitions in semantic function in left temporal lobe
Recent work has focussed on how patterns of functional change within the temporal lobe relate to whole-brain dimensions of intrinsic connectivity variation (Margulies et al., 2016). We examined two such 'connectivity gradients' reflecting the separation of (i) unimodal versus heteromodal and (ii) visual versus auditory-motor cortex, examining visually presented verbal associative and feature judgments, plus picture-based context and emotion gener…
