Abstract

At the beginning of our discussion, this paper depicted and reviewed the concept of modality-specific simulation and introduced the situation model. We further discussed the relationship between these two concepts and designed an experiment aimed to reach out the evidence that can be used to testify the function of situation model in the modality-specific simulation. But we didn’t actually operate the experiment. The entire design is constituted by two separate parts. For the first experiment, we prepared two kinds of articles that only one of them making sense (all articles have the same verb), and monitor the modality-specific areas by MRI. A time keeper is also involved in this experiment. We predict that activation will be stronger and the time will cost less for the reasonable ones. As soon as this prediction being verified, showing that a connection exists between the forming of situation model and embodied cognition, the second experiment will be presented. All of the sentences presented in experiment two can make sense but with different nouns, which means that the comprehenders are facing various situations in a reasonable way. We use TMS in this experiment and predict that modality-specific areas will be activated. If embodied cognition plays a role in the formation of one situation, it should be accessible for the others. Those two experiments mentioned above are still in the design-stage and not being performed. We hoped that our design can inspire you for some ideas within the area of situation model.
