...Momoko Choudhury; Miriam Steines; Arne Nagels; Lydia Riedl; Tilo Kircher; Benjamin Straube On a neural level, we expected that both groups would engage left temporal areas (STG, MTG) for abstract vs concrete stimuli. However, we hypothesized that SSD patients, compared to controls, would show...

As explained in the linguistic category model and in construal-level theory, strategic shifts between abstract and concrete language use can account for fundamental attribution error, actor-observer bias, egocentric bias, linguistic-intergroup bias, and behavioral phenomena associated...

...An alternative to the standard views of phonology is presented, to take into account the critical issues raised in the preceding chapters. Declarative phonology is polysystemic, non-segmental and abstract; it specifically excludes derivation and deletion as valid phonological mechanisms...

... comes from a glottal stop further supports my claim that H1 spreading is leftward (§7.3). Since in some cases positing a glottal stop, along with the tones it has induced, is admittedly abstract, I do consider alternatives. §7.4 concludes, giving language internal and external evidence...

...Many arguments for multiple realization begin with the claim that psychological states are computational states, and conclude the abstractness of computational states assures their multiple realizability. However, in many cases where a cognitive scientist offers a computational description...

...One of the central ways in which the long-standing debate between rationalists and empiricists surfaces in linguistics involves the putative existence of abstract phonological representations underlying seemingly more concrete surface forms. Linguists ranging from Panini to Chomsky and Halle have...

The authors treat abstractness in phonology from a Bayesian perspective by examining opacity in Kalaallisut, an Inuit language of Greenland. All other things...

Are there more or less natural interactions between the rules (feeding, bleeding, and opacity)? Do the rules aim at particular outputs either...
