Zusammenfassung der Projektergebnisse
Introducing and evaluating posture manipulations has been informative for attention research and beyond. Understanding posture-based effects on cognition is precisely the agenda of a recently emerged perspective within the cognitive science called “Embodied Cognition”. The embodied cognition perspective alerts researchers to the lack of validity in much of the previous work on human cognition with passive and static observers. Building on various traditions in neuroscience, philosophy and perception, embodied cognition states that our entire conceptual knowledge remains associated with those sensory and motor features that were activated during knowledge acquisition. The research conducted within this project fits within this broader epistemological perspective by showing that our ability to perceive the world is contingent upon our motor intentions which, in turn, induce attentional costs and benefits along specified dimensions of (temporal or spatial) processing.
