Simulating an enactment effect: Pronouns guide action simulation during narrative comprehensionTali Ditman
Department of Psychology, Tufts University, Medford, MA, USA
Cognition 115:172-8. 2010..Results demonstrate that readers spontaneously mentally simulate actions during language comprehension and take different mental perspectives, even when doing so is not necessary to perform the task...

Acta Psychol (Amst) 139:449-57. 2012..From these results, we infer that perceptuo-motor associations build with time and experience and can play an integral role in retrieval from well-developed spatial representations...
