The spatial reorientation data do not support the thesis that language is the medium of cross-modular thought
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 11 August 2003
Abstract
A central claim of the target article is that language is the medium of domain-general, cross-modular thought; and according to Carruthers, the main, direct evidence for this thesis comes from a series of fascinating studies on spatial reorientation. I argue that the these studies, in fact, provide us with no reason whatsoever to accept this cognitive conception of language.
