The influence of temporal information and perspective taking on the representation of imagined events

چکیده
Abstract: The current research examines how the representation of imagined events is constrained by Grammatical Aspect (imperfective/perfective), Lexical Aspect (activities/accomplishments), and first versus third person perspective taking. In one experiment, participants imagined events based on written cues that framed events as completed or as ongoing (e.g., I was exercising). In a follow-up experiment, participants read written stimuli describing ongoing activities from first or thirdperson perspective. During reading, slow cortical potential amplitudes were recorded to index the difficulty associated with imagining events. It was found that imperfective-accomplishments and perfective-activity cues are more difficult to imagine than perfective-accomplishments and imperfective-activity cues. Greater difficulty was also associated with taking third versus first-person perspective when imagining ongoing activities. This research provides novel insight into how temporal information associated with verbs and perspective influence event representations.

The Effects of Grammatical Aspect and Visual Perspective on Imaginging Accomplishments
We examined how grammatical aspect and visual perspective taking (firstor third-person) influence the ability to imagine accomplishments. Our main prediction was that it would be easier to imagine completed (I had built the fence.) than ongoing events (I was building the fence.) because accomplishments include natural temporal end points. Slow cortical brain potentials were examined as an index...
متن کاملRecognition of Visual Events using Spatio-Temporal Information of the Video Signal
Recognition of visual events as a video analysis task has become popular in machine learning community. While the traditional approaches for detection of video events have been used for a long time, the recently evolved deep learning based methods have revolutionized this area. They have enabled event recognition systems to achieve detection rates which were not reachable by traditional approac...
متن کاملConsidering Uncertainty in Modeling Historical Knowledge
Simplifying and structuring qualitatively complex knowledge, quantifying it in a certain way to make it reusable and easily accessible are all aspects that are not new to historians. Computer science is currently approaching a solution to some of these problems, or at least making it easier to work with historical data. In this paper, we propose a historical knowledge representation model takin...

The term "INDUSTRY 4.0" or "fourth industrial revolution" was first introduced at the fair in 2011 in Hannover. It comes from the high-tech strategy of the German Federal Government that promotes automation-computerization to complete smart automation, meaning the introduction of a method of self-automation, self-configuration, self-diagnosing and fixing the problem, knowledge and intelligent d...

Cycling is a phenomenon in urban transportation that has the ability to allocate a specific location at any moment in time. Accordingly, spatial analysis of bicycle trips can be accompanied by temporal analysis. The use of a GIS environment is commonly recommended to display the extent of the phenomenon's spatial changes. However, in order to apply and display changes over time, it will requir...
