Infants expect objects to be solid and cohesive, and to move on continuous paths through space. In this study, we examine whether infants understand that human beings are material objects, subject to these same principles. We report that 5-month-old infants apply the constraint of continuous motion to inanimate blocks, but not to people. This suggests that young infants have two separate modes ...
The way information about objects is represented in visual cortex remains controversial. It is unclear, for example, whether information is processed in modules, specialized for different categories of objects or whether information is represented in a distributed fashion across a large network of overlapping visual areas. In this study, we used fMR-adaptation to investigate the extent to which...
To what extent does the correlation between grammatical gender and conceptual sex in many languages result in speakers having an implicit association between sex and the concepts of inanimate objects? This question was examined in an artificial gender-learning task similar to Phillips and Boroditsky (2003). The task required native English speakers to learn the grammatical gender of nouns denot...
We examined the effects of plane rotations on the identification of exemplars of three semantic categories. In the first two experiments line drawings belonging to three categories (animals, inanimate objects, and vegetables) were presented at four orientations (0 degree, 60 degrees, 120 degrees, and 180 degrees of clockwise rotation). The response time was found to depend on stimulus category....
John Skelhorn introduces masquerade, a strategy of prey animals to resemble inanimate (and inedible) objects.
The animacy distinction is deeply rooted in the language faculty. A key example is differential object marking, the phenomenon where animate sentential objects receive specific marking. We used event-related potentials to examine the neural processing consequences of case-marking violations on animate and inanimate direct objects in Spanish. Inanimate objects with incorrect prepositional case m...
