关于物体语义知识的研究通常是在儿童和成人中独立进行的。对这些证据的审查表明，这两个文献往往是互补的。从发展的角度来确定我们可以学到什么，朝着理解语义组织的共同目标，这似乎是至关重要的。在这里，我们专注于建议，语义知识的具体概念可能是建立在感官/运动过程的基础上。特别是，我们专注于这种观点的适度表述，对象的语义表示的感觉/运动模型（例如，Gainotti 2007; Martin 2007），已利用行为学、神经影像学和神经心理学证据进行了检查。总之，对婴儿、年龄较大的儿童和成人的行为和神经影像学研究表明，在儿童早期形成的模式在整个生命周期中仍然很突出，也可能预测脑损伤后出现的缺陷模式。
Research regarding semantic knowledge of objects is often conducted independently in children and adults. Review of these bodies of evidence suggests that the two literatures are often complementary. It seems critical to determine what we can learn from a developmental perspective, toward the common goal of understanding semantic organization. Here we focus on the proposal that semantic knowledge about concrete concepts may be built on the foundation of sensory/motor processes. In particular, we focus on a moderate formulation of this viewpoint, the sensory/motor model of semantic representations of objects (e.g., Gainotti 2007; Martin 2007), which has been examined utilizing behavioral, neuroimaging, and neuropsychological evidence. Taken together, behavioral and neuroimaging studies with infants, older children, and adults have suggested that patterns laid down in early childhood remain salient throughout the lifespan and may also predict patterns of deficit that emerge following brain injury.
