The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Seeing Deep Structure From the Interactions of Surface Features (2012, unknown): “In categorization research, deep structure has also been defined in terms of the first-order relationships between two objects, things, locations, arguments, or more generally, two entities (Gentner & Kurtz, 2006; Gentner & Markman, 2006).”
Why verbs are hard to learn (2006, background): “As Gentner (1982, p. 328) noted, these claims apply only to concrete nouns'-including proper nouns that name animate beings-and not to abstract and relational nouns (for further discussion of relational nouns, see Gentner, 2005; Gentner & Kurtz, 2005).”
Where Hypotheses Come From: Learning New Relations by Structural Alignment (2010, unknown): “Relational nouns— nouns whose meaning are defined not by their intrinsic features but by their relations to other entities (Gentner, 2005; Gentner & Kurtz, 2005; A. B. Markman & Stilwell, 2001)—are highly frequent in English (Asmuth & Gentner, 2005).”
Misconceived Causal Explanations for Emergent Processes (2012, background): “Very little research in psychology and related disciplines has studied process concepts; instead the focus has been predominantly on object or entity concepts (Gentner & Kurtz, 2005; Medin, Lynch, & Solomon, 2000).”
