We'd like to remind readers that the responses to queries are usually best posted to the individual asking the question. That individual is then strongly encouraged to post a summary to the list. This policy was
instituted to help control the huge volume of mail on LINGUIST; so we would appreciate your cooperating with it whenever it seems appropriate.
In addition to posting a summary, we'd like to remind people that it is usually a good idea to personally thank those individuals who have taken the trouble to respond to the query.
Hello, I am a student in Linguistics and Psycholinguistics.
I'm going through a project and I would like to know what essay/article should be regarded as basic reference for the concept of ''imagineability'', often referred to in psycholinguistic experiments. I have troubles in understanding this concept from what I read. I would especially like to grasp the differences between the concepts of ''imagineability'' and ''concreteness''. This difference is not always clearly stated in the literature. I would appreciate not only bibliographical references but also, if possible, statements by the repondents concerning their own view as for the difference ''imageability / concreteness''.
I shall post a summary of the responses, quoting the respondents only upon their explicit agreement.
