Classical cognitive theories hold that word representations in the brain are abstract and
amodal, and are independent of the objects' sensorimotor properties they refer to. An …

Many recent neuroimaging studies have investigated the representation of semantic
memory for actions in the brain. We used activation likelihood estimation (ALE) meta …

Globally, mental and musculoskeletal disorders present with high prevalence, disease
burden, and comorbidity. In order to improve the quality of care for patients with persistent …

In this perspective piece, we briefly review embodied cognition and embodied learning. We
then present a translational research model based on this research to inform teachers …

The ultimate goal of reading is to extract meaning from visually printed words. However, the
mechanisms that mediate orthography and semantics are not well-understood, and have …

In cases of brain disease such as temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE), damage may lead to
functional reorganization and a shift in language dominance to homolog regions in the other …

Neurobiology of reading research has yet to explore whether reliance on the ventral-lexical
stream during word reading can be enhanced by the instructed reading strategy, or whether …

Physical activity can facilitate lexical integration, a phenomenon described as “embodied
learning,” learning that involves self-performed or self-generated action that is directly linked …

Stories can inspire love, anger, fear and nostalgia–but what is going on in our brains when
this happens? And how do our minds conjure up worlds and characters from the words we …

Background Clinical reasoning has been widely researched in the health sciences;
however, in osteopathy it is still in its relative infancy. Objective To explore the moment by …
