abstract = {According to the embodied cognition perspective, linguistic
negation may block the motor simulations induced by language
processing. Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) was
applied to the left primary motor cortex (hand area) of
monolingual Italian and German healthy participants during a
rapid serial visual presentation of sentences from their own
language. In these languages, the negative particle is
located at the beginning and at the end of the sentence,
respectively. The study investigated whether the
interruption of the motor simulation processes, accounted
for by reduced motor evoked potentials (MEPs), takes place
similarly in two languages differing on the position of the
negative marker. Different levels of sentence concreteness
were also manipulated to investigate if negation exerts
generalized effects or if it is affected by the semantic
features of the sentence. Our findings indicate that
negation acts as a block on motor representations, but
independently from the language and words concreteness
level.},
