When people describe motion events, their path expressions are biased toward inclusion of
goal paths (eg, into the house) and omission of source paths (eg, out of the house). In this …

In language there is a bias to represent Goals (end points) over Sources (starting points).
The current studies explored whether this bias originates in non-linguistic Motion event …

How do we talk about events we perceive? And how tight is the connection between
linguistic and nonlinguistic representations of events? To address these questions, we …

Recent research has demonstrated an asymmetry between the origins and endpoints of
motion events, with preferential attention given to endpoints rather than beginnings of …

This paper investigates the claim that there is a goal bias in the encoding of motion events,
ie that there are restrictions on the distribution of path-PPs expressing the source or …

Motion events play a central role in people's representation of the world. Not only is our
perception of motion events crucial for safely navigating through the world and key to our …

Languages vary strikingly in how they encode motion events. In some languages (eg
English), manner of motion is typically encoded within the verb, while direction of motion …

Does the way we talk about events correspond to how we conceptualize them? Three
experiments (N= 135) examined how Spanish and Swedish native speakers judge event …

Language is assumed to affect memory by offering an additional medium of encoding visual
stimuli. Given that natural languages differ, cross-linguistic differences might impact memory …

Prior research has demonstrated a linguistic asymmetry between the sources and goals of
motion events, with goals being mentioned more frequently compared to sources in motion …
