... The concept of Varanegeema (conjugation) in Sinhala language has been considered as the philosophical basis of this approach to the development of BEES. The Varanegeema in Sinhala language is able to handle large number of language primitives associated with nouns and verbs. For instance, Varanegeem ...

For instance, monkeys were instructed to perform a spatial response in one direction while reward was associated with a spatial response in the other direction (1-direction reward task, or 1DR; Kawagoe et al. 1998).

Cutaneous Thermosensory Afferent Pathways to the POA Environmental cooling and warming signals sensed by cutaneous cool and warm receptors, respectively, activate separate primary somatosensory neurons that innervate neurons in the spinal and trigeminal (medullary) dorsal horns (Fig. 1B). The dorsal ...

Embodied language processing

Embodied cognition occurs when an organism’s sensorimotor capacities (ability of the body to respond to its senses with movement), body and environment play an important role in thinking. The way in which a person’s body and their surroundings interacts also allows for specific brain functions to develop and in the future to be able to act. This means that not only does the mind influence the body’s movements, but the body also influences the abilities of the mind. There are three generalizations that are assumed to be true relating to embodied cognition. A person's motor system (that controls movement of the body) is activated when (1) they observe manipulable objects, (2) process action verbs, and (3) observe another individual's movements.In order to create movement of the body, a person usually thinks (or the brain subconsciously functions) about the movement it would like to accomplish. Embodied language processing asserts that there can also be an opposite influence. This means that moving your body in a certain way will impact how you comprehend, as well as process, language – whether it is an individual word or a complete phrase or sentence. Embodied language processing suggests that the brain resources that are used for perception, action, and emotion are also used during language comprehension. Studies have found that participants are faster at comprehending a sentence when the picture that goes along with it matches the actions described in the sentence. Action and language about action have been found to be connected because the areas of the brain that control them overlap It has been found that action can influence how a person understands a word, phrase, or sentence, but language can also impact a person's actions.
