An argument that the meaning of written or auditory linguistic signals is not derived from the
input but results from the brain's internal construction process. When we read a text or listen …

This chapter surveys the use of logic and computational complexity theory in cognitive
science. We emphasize in particular the role played by logic in bridging the gaps between …

We examine the verification of simple quantifiers in natural language from a computational
model perspective. We refer to previous neuropsychological investigations of the same …

One approach to understanding how the human cognitive system stores and operates with
quantifiers such as “some,”“many,” and “all” is to investigate their interaction with the …

This paper proposes a novel, cognitively motivated theory of natural language quantification
and presents experimental evidence for it. Taking into account recent findings from number …

Quantifier expressions like “many” and “at least” are part of a rich repository of words in
language representing magnitude information. The role of numerical processing in …

The paper explores the relationship between intelligence and the semantic processing of
natural language quantifiers. The first study revealed that intelligence is positively …

The paper explores the cognitive mechanisms involved in the verification of sentences with
proportional quantifiers (eg “More than half of the dots are blue”). The first study shows that …

We compared the processing of natural language quantifiers in a group of patients with
schizophrenia and a healthy control group. In both groups, the difficulty of the quantifiers …

The paper presents a study examining the role of working memory in quantifier verification.
We created situations similar to the span task to compare numerical quantifiers of low and …
