“…This conclusion converges with studies on motion summarized earlier in this article, showing that effects of language on cognitive processes are task dependent and do not always surface in ordinary contexts (Papafragou et al., ; Trueswell & Papafragou, ; see also Gennari et al., ; Papafragou & Selimis, ). This conclusion is also consistent with studies of the role of language in further domains, such as the object/substance distinction (Li, Dunham, & Carey, ), positional information in spatial scenes (Bosse & Papafragou, ), and source monitoring (Ünal, Pinto, Bunger, & Papafragou, ). Thus, available findings suggest that linguistic categories exert their influence on how speakers cognize the world in a flexible way.…”
