Interactionism in personality and social psychology: An integrated approach to understanding the mind and behaviour (2010, background): “One of the main obstacles or blockages to these ideas is referred to as the ‘boxology’ model of encoding, memory and retrieval (Smith & Conrey, 2007; Smith & Semin, 2004).”
Culture as situated cognition: Cultural mindsets, cultural fluency, and meaning making (2011, background): “Situated cognition refers to the often non-conscious impact of social contexts on thinking and action (Smith & Collins, 2010; Smith & Conrey, 2010; Smith & Semin, 2004 , 2007 ).”
Sensory marketing, embodiment, and grounded cognition: A review and introduction (2014, background): “…early insights of William James (1890), situated cognition research assumes that thinking is for doing and that any mind worth having needs to be geared towards facilitating action in ways that are sensitive to the requirement of one's current situation (for a review, see Smith & Semin, 2004).”
Behaviour variability and the Situated Focus Theory of Power (2007, background): “Information processing is therefore flexible and changes its focus across different situations (see Barsalou, 1999; Fiske, 1992; Prinz & Barsalou, 2000; Smith & Semin, 2004).”
Mental construal and the emergence of assimilation and contrast effects: The inclusion/exclusion model. (2010, background): “We may therefore assume that individuals’ thought processes are tuned to meet the requirements of their goal pursuits in a given context; numerous findings are compatible with this assumption (for reviews see Schwarz, 2002, Smith & Semin, 2004).”
Identity-based motivation: Implications for action-readiness, procedural-readiness, and consumer behavior (2009, unknown): “To be sure, situated and social cognition approaches do not propose that all context effects on cognitive processes are necessarily mediated by self-concept or identity (e.g., Smith & Semin, 2004).”
How mood turns on language. (2006, background): “such inner processes translate to language use since language—as a medium for practical activity—is the tool that enables the implementation of cognition in social interaction (Semin, 2000, 2001; Smith & Semin, 2004 ).”
Embodiment in Attitudes, Social Perception, and Emotion (2005, background): “Despite all this evidence, however, no major theory has explained it (Smith & Semin, 2004).”
