Taalbegrip: een onderzoek naar de dynamische veranderingen in activering van mentale simulaties
This dissertation studies how language comprehension works by examining the changes in the activation of mental simulations that occur naturally during reading. Five studies were conducted which dive deeper into the underlying mechanisms of these mental simulations and provide evidence for the grounded theories of cognition.
