Conceptual knowledge: Grounded in sensorimotor states, or a disembodied deus ex machina?
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 20 December 2010
Abstract
If embodied models no longer address the symbol grounding problem and a “disembodied” conceptual system can step in and resolve categorizations when embodied simulations fail, then perhaps the next step in theory-building is to isolate the unique contributions of embodied simulation. What is a disembodied conceptual system incapable of doing with respect to semantic processing or the categorization of smiles?
