Embodiment und Sense of Agency

  • Chapter
  • First Online:

Zusammenfassung

Embodiment (embodied cognition) zufolge werden körperliche Signale, innere Zustände und Handlungen als bedeutsame Bestandteile kognitiver Prozesse betrachtet. Im vorliegenden Kapitel werden vier Bereiche der Handlungsforschung dargestellt, die mit Embodiment in Verbindung gebracht werden: Handlungsvorstellungen, Handlungsbeobachtung, Sense of Agency und handlungsbezogene Sprache. Insgesamt sprechen die Befunde eher für eine schwache Form von Embodiment (der Körper und Handlungen informieren kognitive Prozesse und schränken diese ein) als für eine radikale Form von Embodiment (der Körper und Handlungen sind obligatorisch für kognitive Prozesse).

Schlüsselwörter: Embodiment; Handlungsvorstellung; Handlungsbeobachtung; Sense of Agency; Handlungsbezogene Sprache
