The embodiment of number knowledge in sensorimotor experience: The facts behind the questions and the questions before us

2022-04-28

Abstract excerpt

<p>Embodied cognition theories have generated considerable interest in the last two decades because they claim to have solved the problem of concept representation in the human brain. The idea is that concepts are constituted by information that is represented in the sensorimotor system. Finger counting offers a unique paradigm to test this idea because it associates abstract numerical symbols with a physical coun...
