In: Understanding Events: How Humans See, Represent, and Act on Events.

TL;DR: It is argued that the bulk of behavioural and neural evidence suggests that the authors predict probabilistically and at multiple levels and grains of representation, and that all these properties of language understanding can be naturally explained and productively explored within a multi-representational hierarchical actively generative architecture.

TL;DR: Gait patterns associated with sadness and depression are characterized by reduced walking speed, arm swing, and vertical head movements, indicating that a specific gait pattern characterizes individuals in dysphoric mood.

TL;DR: A set of studies whose results indicate that event knowledge plays a significant role in early stages of sentence processing and structural analysis are reviewed, which poses a conundrum for traditional views of the lexicon.

TL;DR: It is suggested that there may be a tradeoff between these mechanisms in their utility for integrating across people, objects, and actions during event comprehension, in which the first mechanism is better suited for familiar situations, and the second mechanism isbetter suited for novel situations.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors explored the hypothesis that the members of categories which are considered most prototypical are those with most attributes in common with other members of the category and least attributes with other categories and found that family resemblance offers an alternative to criterial features in defining categories.

TL;DR: This book discussesMeta-Theoretical Issues and Perspectives, a meta-theoreticalPrinciples of Representation, and its Applications, a Practical Guide to Bilingual Cognitive Representation.

TL;DR: In a sentence reading task, words that occurred out of context were associated with specific types of event-related brain potentials that elicited a late negative wave (N400).
