A vicarious experience is an empathetic state in response to the observation of others’ sensations, emotions, and actions (Keysers and Gazzola, 2009).

Interestingly, vicarious experiences recruit similar neural processes as t...

Adherents of two-dimensionalist semantics have devised a powerful argument to show that the Kripke-Putnam semantics is in need of an overhaul.

The literature has focused on forms of synesthesia in which stimuli (e.g. music, touch or numbers) trigger experiences of color. Generally missing, however, is the observation that synesthetic colors are often accompanied by the experience of other surface properties such as tex...
متن کاملThe neural underpinnings of vicarious experience
In recent decades there has been an explosion of empirical research into the social cognitive processes that underlie our social interactions. Coinciding with, or perhaps driving, the interest within this area is the development of modern neuroscientific techniques bringing real world experiences into the laboratory to produce biological models of how we experience and interact with other peopl...
متن کاملWhy Model Versioning Research is Needed ! ? An Experience Report ?
The status of current model-driven engineering technologies has matured over the last years whereas the infrastructure supporting model management is still in its infancy. Infrastructural means include version control systems, which are successfully used for the management of textual artifacts like source code. Unfortunately, they are only limited suitable for models. Consequently, dedicated so...
