THE DEVELOPMENT OF OBJECT CATEGORIZATION IN YOUNG CHILDREN: HIERARCHICAL INCLUSIVENESS, AGE, PERCEPTUAL ATTRIBUTE, AND GROUP VERSUS INDIVIDUAL ANALYSES (2010, background): “Even when patients no longer know the difference between dogs and cats, they still regard both as animals (Hodges et al., 1995).”
Conceptual representations in mind and brain: theoretical developments, current evidence and future directions. (2012, background): “Similarly, coarse superordinate categorial information for an object concept is typically relatively preserved in Semantic Dementia (animal) while more specific conceptual differentiations (bird or chicken) are more severely impaired (Hodges et al., 1995).”
The parallel distributed processing approach to semantic cognition (2003, background): “Patients suffer a progressive deterioration in semantic tasks such as naming objects, sorting them into taxonomic categories or verifying their properties 4 .”
Structure and deterioration of semantic memory: a neuropsychological and computational investigation. (2004, background): “, animal instead of dog), which suggests that superordinate category names are more robust than are more specific labels (Hodges et al., 1995; Warrington, 1975).”
Semantic Cognition: A Parallel Distributed Processing Approach (2004, background): ““Coherence” is a term introduced by Murphy and Medin (1985) to capture the observation that, of the many ways of grouping individual items in the environment together, some groupings seem more natural, intuitive, and useful for the purposes of inference than others.”
No Right to Speak? The Relationship between Object Naming and Semantic Impairment:Neuropsychological Evidence and a Computational Model (2001, background): “…left-temporal atrophy; but investigations over the next few years revealed a pattern described as``progressive pure anomia'' (Graham, Patterson, & Hodges, 1995): whereas FM's severe anomia became even more pronounced, her performance on various comprehension tests remained fairly constant, with…”
The Large-Scale Structure of Semantic Networks: Statistical Analyses and a Model of Semantic Growth (2005, background): “…distributed across a network (e.g., O’Reilly & Munakata, 2000; Rogers & McClelland, 2004), in part based on the fact that with aging and the onset of dementia, semantic concepts typically degrade gradually rather than in an all-or-none fashion (Hodges, Graham, & Patterson, 1995; Warrington, 1975).”
