When Mechanical Computations Explain Better. This open access book presents novel theoretical, empirical and experimental work exploring the nature of mental representations that support natural language production and understanding, and other manifestations of cognition. One fundamental question raised in the text is whether requisite knowledge structures can be adequately modeled by means of a uniform representational format, and if so, what exactly is its nature. Frames are a key topic covered which have had a strong impact on the exploration of knowledge representations in artificial intelligence, psychology and linguistics; cascades are a novel development in frame theory. Other key subject areas explored are: concepts and categorization, the experimental investigation of mental representation, as well as cognitive analysis in semantics. This book is of interest to students, researchers, and professionals working on cognition in the fields of linguistics, philosophy, and psychology.

One fundamental question raised in the text is whether requisite knowledge structures can be adequately modeled by means of a uniform representational format, and if so, what exactly is its nature. Frames are a key topic covered which have had a strong impact on the exploration of knowledge representations in artificial intelligence, psychology and linguistics; cascades are a novel development in frame theory. Other key subject areas explored are: concepts and categorization, the experimental investigation of mental representation, as well as cognitive analysis in semantics. This book is of interest to students, researchers, and professionals working on cognition in the fields of linguistics, philosophy, and psychology.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="546" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">English</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="536" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Heinrich-Heine-Universität Düsseldorf</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">linguistics</subfield><subfield code="2">bicssc</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Philosophy of mind</subfield><subfield code="2">bicssc</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Experimental psychology</subfield><subfield code="2">bicssc</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Cognitive Linguistics</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Philosophy of Mind</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Experimental Psychology</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Psycholinguistics and Cognitive Lingusitics</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Representation of Concepts</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Lexical Semantics</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Frame Semantics</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Frame Representations</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Conceptual Spaces</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Categorization and Linguistics</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Open Access</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Linguistics</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="653" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Cognitive studies</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="776" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="z">3-030-50199-X</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="700" ind1="1" ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Gamerschlag, Thomas.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="700" ind1="1" ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Kalenscher, Tobias.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="700" ind1="1" ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Schrenk, Markus.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="700" ind1="1" ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Zeevat, Henk.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="830" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Language, Cognition, and Mind </subfield></datafield><datafield tag="906" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">BOOK</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="ADM" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="b">2023-11-11 07:20:35 Europe/Vienna</subfield><subfield code="f">system</subfield><subfield code="c">marc21</subfield><subfield code="a">2021-06-25 18:52:22 Europe/Vienna</subfield><subfield code="g">false</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="AVE" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="i">DOAB Directory of Open Access Books</subfield><subfield code="P">DOAB Directory of Open Access Books</subfield><subfield code="x">https://eu02.alma.exlibrisgroup.com/view/uresolver/43ACC_OEAW/openurl?u.ignore_date_coverage=true&portfolio_pid=5337851330004498&Force_direct=true</subfield><subfield code="Z">5337851330004498</subfield><subfield code="b">Available</subfield><subfield code="8">5337851330004498</subfield></datafield></record></collection> |
