Abstract
⺠There are no experimental evidence on how the brain processes adjectives. ⺠We applied TMS while subjects were reading adjectives, expressing negative or positive features. ⺠We recorded MEPs from two antagonist muscles, one involved in grasping, the other in releasing. ⺠Depending on their function, muscle activity was differently modulated by the used adjectives. ⺠These results are well explained by an embodied approach to language processing.
