Dear colleagues,

What do we know about infants' categorization of intransitive actions?
For example, we all jump and do that in all kinds of ways. And yet, we
put all the instances in one category. Moreover, how is this
categorization related to verb learning? Any pointer or reference will
be appreciated!

Thanks,
