Structure and Deterioration of Semantic Memory: A Neuropsychological and Computational Investigation
Rogers, Timothy T.; Lambon Ralph, Matthew A.; Garrard, Peter; Bozeat, Sasha; McClelland, James L.; Hodges, John R.; Patterson, Karalyn – Psychological Review, 2004
Wernicke (1900, as cited in G. H. Eggert, 1977) suggested that semantic knowledge arises from the interaction of perceptual representations of objects and words. The authors present a parallel distributed processing implementation of this theory, in which semantic representations emerge from mechanisms that acquire the mappings between visual…

Models of Sensory Deprivation: The Nature/nurture Dichotomy and Spatial Representation in the Blind.
Peer reviewedMillar, Susanna – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 1988
Examines the fallacies about the nature of abilities and learning and about the interaction between sense modalities which follow from the dichotomy in relation to explanations of spatial development in the blind. Suggests that interactions between cognitive and perceptual factors need to be considered to explain more adequately effects of sensory…
