Editors' Introduction: Abstract Concepts: Structure, Processing, and Modeling
Topics in Cognitive Science 10 (3):490-500 (2018)
Abstract
Our ability to deal with abstract concepts is one of the most intriguing faculties of human cognition. Still, we know little about how such concepts are formed, processed, and represented in mind. Current views are presented in their most recent and advanced form in this special issue, and directly compared and discussed in a lively debate, reported at the end of each chapter. The main results are reported in the editors’ introduction.My notes
