  1. Up right, not right up: Primacy of verticality in both language and movement.Véronique Boulenger, Livio Finos, Eric Koun, Roméo Salemme, Clément Desoche & Alice C. Roy - 2022 - Frontiers in Human Neuroscience 16:981330.
    When describing motion along both the horizontal and vertical axes, languages from different families express the elements encoding verticality before those coding for horizontality (e.g., going up right instead of right up). In light of the motor grounding of language, the present study investigated whether the prevalence of verticality in Path expression also governs the trajectory of arm biological movements. Using a 3D virtual-reality setting, we tracked the kinematics of hand pointing movements in five spatial directions, two of which implied (...)
