Dr. Anna Borghi investigates how concepts are grounded in sensory-motor and social experiences through the lens of embodied cognition. Her Words As social Tools (WAT) theory proposes that abstract concepts rely more heavily on linguistic and social experiences than concrete concepts.
Central research themes:
- Neural and behavioral foundations of abstract concepts
- Role of language and inner speech in conceptual processing
- Social dimensions of conceptual representation
- Cross-cultural differences in concept formation
- Development of abstract thought in children
Recent work employs multimodal methodologies including thermal imaging, motion tracking, and computational modeling. Publications demonstrate growing interest in real-world applications such as autism interventions and AI communication systems.
Current projects examine conceptual processing during the COVID-19 pandemic and politeness strategies in human-chatbot interactions.
