Beschreibung:
The interconcept organization of verbs and nouns were studied by examining the stability of organizations in three tasks a) a unconstrainded sort task, in which subjects sorted sets of 16 verbs or 16 nouns into clusters as they wanted ; b) a semantic sort task, in which subjets sorted sets of 16 verbs or 16 nouns into clusters based on meaning ; c) a script sort task, in which subjets sorted sets of 16 verbs or 16 nouns into clusters based on situations. This study show that only the clusters of nouns are affected by the different tasks, and confirmed our hypothesis that there are functional and conceptual differences between nouns and verbs.
