In theories of cognition, 4E approaches to cognition are seen to refrain from employing robust representations in contrast to Predictive Process, where such posits are utilized extensively. Despite this notable dissimilarity with regard to posits they employ in ex- plaining certain cognitive phenomena, it has been repeatedly argued that they are in fact compatible. As one may expect, these arguments mostly end up contending either that Predictive Process is actually nonrepresentational or that 4E approaches are representational. In this paper, I will argue that such arguments are inadequate for the indicated purpose for several reasons: the variety of representational posits in Predictive Process, the diverse attitudes of practitioners of 4E approaches toward representations and the unconstrained use of the term “representation” in cognitive science. Hence, here I will try to demonstrate that any single argument, if it depends on representational 4E approaches or nonrepresentational Predictive Process, falls short of encompassing this heterogeneity in pertinent debates. Then, I will analyse similar arguments provided by Jacob Hohwy and Michael Kirchhoff to illustrate how destructive this seemingly ordinary criticism is.

This article investigates the repercussions of observing the intersection of translation practice with the physical dimension, in line with current research on embodied cognition. The paper begins with a brief outline of cognitive embodiment outside the field of translation studies before moving on to examining some of the many areas where translation and physicality overlap. The example of dance notation will then be introduced, prompting a series of questions raised by such a practice, questions that will ultimately shed light on an embodied translation practice in general.

We argue that phenomenology can be of central and positive importance to the cognitive sciences, and that it can also learn from the empirical research conducted in those sciences. We discuss the project of naturalizing phenomenology and how this can be best accomplished. We provide several examples of how phenomenology and the cognitive sciences can integrate their research. Specifically, we consider issues related to embodied cognition and intersubjectivity. We provide a detailed analysis of issues related to time consciousness, with reference to understanding schizophrenia and the loss of the sense of agency. We offer a positive proposal to address these issues based on a neurobiological dynamic-systems model.

This study shows how the cognitive components of the protection motivation theory (PMT) are affected by embodied information in the context of skin cancer prevention. Weight sensations were manipulated by writing on a light versus heavy clipboard. Heaviness increased the mean self-efficacy of 120 participants and their coping-appraisal but decreased the perceived rewards of maladaptive behaviour. In contrast, weight neither affected the perceived severity of maladaptive behaviour nor the importance of tanned skin. Thus, the results are only partially compatible with the metaphor-oriented approach of embodied cognition. Moreover, while a sensed heaviness increased this correlation, increased coping-appraisal, but not threat-appraisal, increased participants’ reported protection motivation. The results suggest enlarging the spectrum of environmental inputs affecting the cognitive parameters of the PMT. The results also raise the question of the validity of self-reports in a pencil-and-paper administration mode and they may indicate the utility of bodily sensations in therapeutic settings.

This article aims to deepen the interdisciplinary reflection on both the act of faith and the Christian identity. The starting point is the contribution of the Italian theologian Pierangelo Sequeri (b. 1944), who theologically analyzes the deepest human interior called by him ‘the believing consciousness’. After presenting briefly his theory I will argue that the solution to this question needs to be broadened. The call to this task comes to us from the field of cognitive neurosciences. Its findings lead us to overcome a still present hidden dualism in understanding a human being. I am here seeking to analyze the theory called embodied cognition understood as an enlarged description of human consciousness. Finally, this approach makes possible to obtain a more realistic description of the concept of human habitus and its complexity.
