The emulation theory of representation: Motor control, imagery, and perception

R Grush - Behavioral and brain sciences, 2004 - cambridge.org
The emulation theory of representation is developed and explored as a framework that can
revealingly synthesize a wide variety of representational functions of the brain. The …

Emulation of kinesthesia during motor imagery

N Sadato, E Naito - Behavioral and Brain Sciences, 2004 - cambridge.org
Illusory kinesthetic sensation was influenced by motor imagery of the wrist following tendon
vibration. The imagery and the illusion conditions commonly activated the contralateral …

Further explorations of the empirical and theoretical aspects of the emulation theory

R Grush - Behavioral and Brain Sciences, 2004 - cambridge.org
The emulation theory of representation articulated in the target article is further explained
and explored in this response to commentaries. Major topics include: the irrelevance of …

Emulators as sources of hidden cognitive variables

P Gärdenfors - Behavioral and Brain Sciences, 2004 - cambridge.org
I focus on the distinction between sensation and perception. Perceptions contain additional
information that is useful for interpreting sensations. Following Grush, I propose that …

Modality, quo vadis?

K Sathian - Behavioral and brain sciences, 2004 - cambridge.org
Grush's emulation theory comprises both modality-specific and amodal emulators. I suggest
that the amodal variety be replaced by multisensory emulators. The key distinction is that …

Amodal imagery in rostral premotor areas

T Hanakawa, M Honda, M Hallett - Behavioral and Brain Sciences, 2004 - cambridge.org
Inspired by Rick Grush's emulation theory, we reinterpreted a series of our neuroimaging
experiments which were intended to examine the representations of complex movement …

Epistemology, emulators, and extended minds

T Dartnall - Behavioral and Brain Sciences, 2004 - cambridge.org
Grush's framework has epistemological implications and explains how it is possible to
acquire offline empirical knowledge. It also complements the extended-mind thesis, which …

Does the brain implement the Kalman filter?

The emulation theory of representation: Motor control, imagery, and perception Page 1 From
semantic analogy to theoretical confusion? Valérie Gaveau,a Michel Desmurget,a and Pierre …

The role of “prespecification” in an embodied cognition

JS Jordan - Behavioral and Brain Sciences, 2004 - cambridge.org
Grush makes extensive use of von Holst and Mittelstaedt's (1950) efference copy
hypothesis. Although his embellishment of the model is admirably more sophisticated than …

The art of representation: Support for an enactive approach

N Newton - Behavioral and Brain Sciences, 2004 - cambridge.org
Grush makes an important contribution to a promising way of viewing mental representation:
as a component activity in sensorimotor processes. Grush shows that there need be no …
