Citations in the corpus

• Embodiment in Mathematics Teaching and Learning: Evidence From Learners' and Teachers' Gestures (2012, background): “Hostetter and Alibali (2008, 2010) argued that whether a simulation is actually produced as a gesture depends in part on the strength of the action component of the simulation.”
• Iconicity as a General Property of Language: Evidence from Spoken and Signed Languages (2010, background): “It is important for future research to tease apart these different types of iconicity and to assess their relative learning difficulty (see Meier et al., 2008 for a similar point). www.frontiersin.org December 2010 | Volume 1 | Article 227 | 11 and comprehension (Hostetter and Alibali, 2008, 2010).”
• Getting the point: Tracing worked examples enhances learning (2015, background): “From the view of embodied cognition, Hostetter and Alibali (2008, 2010) proposed the gesture-assimulated-action framework to argue that gestures are natural outward expressions of mental simulation, which means gestures emerge from perceptual and motor simulation.”
