Resumo

A semântica cognitiva possui diferentes métodos de pesquisa, como introspecção, análise de corpora, análise de interações e experimentos. A análise de "dados produzidos em situações não-controladas" (corpora e interações) geralmente é baseada em teorias, mas raramente no cenário atual dos resultados de pesquisa experimental sobre linguagem e cognição. Este artigo tem dois objetivos, o primeiro é enfatizar a possibilidade e importância de diminuir a distância entre teoria, evidência empírica e análise de dados linguísticos no estudo da cognição. O segundo é sugerir que recorrer ao estado da arte de pesquisas empíricas sobre linguagem e cognição permite análises mais flexíveis, que podem superar os limites de teorias atuais. Para esse fim, (i) fornecemos uma visão geral atual de resultados de pesquisas neuro e psicolinguísticas sobre o “grounding” de conceitos concretos e abstratos, (ii) discutimos como esses resultados podem apoiar as análises de dados linguísticos e (iii) enfatizamos as tendências em direção a teorias de múltiplas representações e sistemas dinâmicos.
