The neurobiology of semantic memory
Semantic memory includes all acquired knowledge about the world and is the basis for
nearly all human activity, yet its neurobiological foundation is only now becoming clear …

Re-examining the gesture engram hypothesis. New perspectives on apraxia of tool use
F Osiurak, C Jarry, D Le Gall - Neuropsychologia, 2011 - Elsevier
In everyday life, we are led to reuse the same tools (eg, fork, hammer, coffee-maker), raising
the question as to whether we have to systematically recreate the idea of the manipulation …

Anomia as a marker of distinct semantic memory impairments in Alzheimer's disease and semantic dementia.
Objective: Many neurologically constrained models of semantic memory have been
informed by two primary temporal lobe pathologies: Alzheimer's disease (AD) and Semantic …

Different roles of lateral anterior temporal lobe and inferior parietal lobule in coding function and manipulation tool knowledge: evidence from an rTMS study
A remarkable cognitive ability in humans is the competency to use a wide variety of different
tools. Two cortical regions, the anterior temporal lobes (ATL) and left inferior parietal lobule …

From pantomime to actual use: how affordances can facilitate actual tool-use
J Randerath, G Goldenberg, W Spijkers, Y Li… - Neuropsychologia, 2011 - Elsevier
The main goal of the study was to investigate whether the presence of affordances, such as
physical properties of given objects and resulting movement constraints, induce a …

Dissociation between manipulation and conceptual knowledge of object use in the supramarginalis gyrus
Because tool naming activates motor‐related areas in the posterior parietal cortex, it has
been suggested that conceptual knowledge of tools relies on their unique manipulation …

Motor knowledge is one dimension for concept organization: Further evidence from a Chinese semantic dementia case
Neuropsychological and neuroimaging studies have indicated that motor knowledge is one
potential dimension along which concepts are organized. Here we present further direct …
