Empathy: a motivated account. (2014, background): “…follows the proliferation of theories according to which conceptual knowledge—including visual imagery (Kosslyn, 1980; Kosslyn et al., 1996) and linguistic concepts (Barsalou, 2008; Barsalou, Kyle Simmons, Barbey, & Wilson, 2003; Martin & Chao, 2001)—are grounded in sensorimotor representations.”
The parallel distributed processing approach to semantic cognition (2003, background): “There are many applications of parallel distributed processing models to semantic disorders 6,42,45,47,50,51 ,but as yet no unified account for the full variety of different patterns of semantic deficit 108 .”
The contents of long-term memory and the emergence of knowledge (2009, methodology): “Perhaps the most widely read work in this field was performed by Martin and Ungerleider (Martin, Haxby, Lalonde, Wiggs, & Ungerleider, 1995; Martin, Wiggs, Ungerleider, & Haxby, 1996; Ungerleider, 1995; for a review, see, for example, Martin & Chao, 2001; Martin, Ungerleider, & Haxby, 2000).”
Neural reflections of meaning in gesture, language, and action (2009, background): “Studies investigating the processing of visual objects mostly find that ventral temporal cortex is activated to the perception of a large variety of objects (Schacter and Buckner 1998; Martin and Chao 2001).”
Act-In: An integrated view of memory mechanisms (2014, background): “…have confirmed the fact that knowledge emerges from the activation of neuronal systems that are typically associated with perceptuo-motor mechanisms (Jääskeläinen, Ahveninen, Belliveau, Raij, & Sams, 2007; Martin & Chao, 2001; Martin, Ungerleider, & Haxby, 2000; Slotnick, 2004; Weinberger, 2004).”
Functional links between motor and language systems (2005, background): “Our results show that the left hemispheric cortical systems for language and action are linked to each other in a category-specific manner and that activation in motor and premotor areas can influence the processing of specific kinds of words semantically related to arm or leg actions.”
Learning and Consolidation of Novel Spoken Words (2009, background): “Perhaps the clearest example of multimodal word knowledge is in the domain of semantics (Hauk, Johnsrude, & Pulvermuller, 2004; Martin & Chao, 2001; Barsalou, 1999).”
Doing without Concepts (2009, neutral): “7 Martin and Chao 2001: 194; Barsalou et al. 2003: 84; Farah 2004: 143.”
Functional neuroanatomy of remote episodic, semantic and spatial memory: a unified account based on multiple trace theory (2005, methodology): “…over two other models: (1) traditional consolidation models which posit that the hippocampus is a time-limited memory structure for all forms of memory; and (2) versions of cognitive map theory which posit that the hippocampus is needed for representing all forms of allocentric space in memory.”
Memory as a Constructive Process: The Parallel Distributed Processing Approach (2010, neutral): “There are still alternative perspectives, however (11).”
Is the mind really modular (2005, background): “We know that damage to visual areas can disrupt conceptual competence (Martin & Chao, 2001).”
