The Primacy of Experience in Language Processing: Semantic Priming Is Driven Primarily by Experiential Similarity

2023-03-22

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> The organization of semantic memory, including memory for word meanings, has long been a central question in cognitive science. Although there is general agreement that word meaning representations must make contact with sensory-motor and affective experiences in a non-arbitrary fashion, the nature of this relationship remains controversial. One prominent view proposes that word meanings are rep...
