Theories of grounded cognition assume that conceptual representations are grounded in sensorimotor expertise. Nevertheless, summary ideas reminiscent of jealousy or childhood haven’t any instantly related referents with which such sensorimotor expertise might be made; subsequently, the grounding of summary ideas has lengthy been a subject of debate.
