Embodied Memory by claudia repetto
In the last decade, embodiment has dramatically influenced our conception of cognition. Several research lines in experimental psychology and neuroscience added data supporting the idea that cognitive processes such as memory and language are influenced by the sensory-motor system. In this collection I want to put together empirical studies and theoretical contributions about the effects of the embodiment towards our ability to encode and retrieve memories.
