Embodied approaches to cognition propose that our own actions influence our understanding of the world. Do other people's actions also have this influence? The present studies show that perceiving another person's actions changes the way people think about objects in a scene. In Study 1, participants viewed a photograph and answered a question about the location of one object relative to another. The question either did or did not call attention to an action being performed in the scene. Studies 2 and 3 focused on whether depicting an action in a scene influenced perspective choice. Across all studies, drawing attention to action, whether verbally or pictorially, led observers to encode object locations from the actor's spatial perspective. Study 4 demonstrated that the tendency to adopt the actor's perspective might be mediated by motor experience.
具身认知方法认为，我们自己的行动会影响我们对世界的理解。他人的行动是否也有这种影响呢？目前的研究表明，感知他人的行动会改变人们思考场景中物体的方式。在研究1中，参与者观看一张照片，并回答一个关于一个物体相对于另一个物体位置的问题。这个问题要么会，要么不会引起对场景中正在进行的一个动作的注意。研究2和3关注的是在场景中描绘一个动作是否会影响视角选择。在所有研究中，无论是通过语言还是图像来吸引对动作的注意，都会引导观察者从行动者的空间视角对物体位置进行编码。研究4表明，采用行动者视角的倾向可能是由运动体验介导的。
