According to the embodied cognition view, comprehending action-related language requires
the participation of sensorimotor processes. A now sizeable literature has tested this …

Action-concept outcomes are useful targets to identify Parkinson's disease (PD) patients and
differentiate between those with and without mild cognitive impairment (PD-MCI, PD-nMCI) …

Embodied theories of cognition consider many aspects of language and other cognitive
domains as the result of sensory and motor processes. In this view, the appraisal and the …

Neurocognitive research on social concepts underscores their reliance on fronto-temporo-
limbic regions mediating broad socio-cognitive skills. Yet, the field has neglected another …

Situated models suggest that social concepts are grounded in interpersonal experience.
However, few studies have tested this notion experimentally, and none has targeted …

The pressing call to detect sensitive cognitive markers of frontal lobe epilepsy (FLE) remains
poorly addressed. Standard frameworks prove nosologically unspecific (as they reveal …

Embodied cognition theories predict a functional involvement of sensorimotor processes in
language understanding. In a preregistered experiment, we tested this idea by investigating …

Built on neurodegenerative lesions models, the disrupted motor grounding hypothesis
(DMGH) posits that motor-system alterations selectively impair action comprehension …

Embodied cognition research indicates that sensorimotor training can influence action
concept processing. Yet, most studies employ isolated (pseudo) randomized stimuli and …

The planning and execution of manual actions can be influenced by concomitant processing
of manual action verbs. However, this phenomenon manifests in varied ways throughout the …
