Abstract

Habel, C., Kaup, B., & Kelter, S. (1997). Embodied representations are are part of a grouping of representations (Commentary on Glenberg's target article "What memory is for"), Behavioral and Brain Sciences, 20, 26.


Glenberg argues for embodied representations relevant to action. In contrast, we propose a grouping of representations, not necessarily all being directly embodied. Without assuming the existence of representations that are not directly embodied, one cannot account for the use of knowledge abstracteed from direct experience.
