Symposium discusses the interaction between "embodiment of cognition" phenomena and biologically-based traits. It analyses the results of experimental studies that investigated the impact of biologically-based individual differences (sex and temperament) on semantic perception, clinical conditions and personality traits. It will also analyse the traits related to sensitivity to specific reinforcers.
