Evidence from functional neuroimaging of the human brain indicates that information about salient properties of an object-such as what it looks like, how it moves, and how it is used-is stored in sensory and motor systems active when that information was acquired. As a result, object concepts belonging to different categories like animals and tools are represented in partially distinct, sensory- and motor property-based neural networks. This suggests that object concepts are not explicitly represented, but rather emerge from weighted activity within property-based brain regions. However, some property-based regions seem to show a categorical organization, thus providing evidence consistent with category-based, domain-specific formulations as well.

大脑中对象概念的表示。

来自人脑的功能神经影像学的证据表明，有关对象的显着特性的信息（例如其外观，运动方式以及使用方式）存储在获取该信息时处于活动状态的感觉和运动系统中。结果，属于不同类别的对象概念（如动物和工具）在部分不同的基于感官和运动特性的神经网络中得以表示。这表明对象概念没有明确表示，而是从基于属性的大脑区域内的加权活动中产生的。但是，某些基于属性的区域似乎显示出类别组织，因此也提供了与基于类别，特定领域的表述一致的证据。
