- Henry_Gleitman abstract "Henry Gleitman (born 1925) is a Professor Emeritus of Psychology at the University of Pennsylvania. Gleitman was born in Leipzig, Germany. He received his Ph.D. in psychology from the University of California, Berkeley. He then taught at Swarthmore College before joining the UPenn faculty in 1953.Gleitman is a cognitive psychologist with interests in language (especially the relationship between semantics and syntax), but he claims, "I'm probably better identified as a general psychologist whose research interests range over many of the traditional areas of psychological inquiry." Gleitman is willing to work with students in any field of psychology if that student can interest him in his/her proposed field of research. Gleitman is best known for his authorship of Psychology, a classic textbook first published in 1981 used in many Introduction to Psychology classes, now in its eighth edition.Henry Gleitman is married to fellow psychologist Lila R. Gleitman, an internationally-renowned language acquisition researcher, who is also a Professor Emerita of Psychology and Linguistics at the University of Pennsylvania. Henry and Lilia Geleitman collaborate together with research. I'm also working (again with Lila Gleitman and several graduate students) on what we call 'symmetrical predicates" such as equal, equal, near, and meet, for which it is the case that if A is X of B (where X is the predicate), it is also true that B is X of A. Some years ago, Amos Tversky and his collaborators suggested that the symmetry of similar is by no means perfect, since sentences such as "South Korea is similar to China" seemed somehow better and more acceptable than "China is similar to South Korea". On the basis of such findings they concluded that similarity is not a symmetrical concept. Our own work, however, shows that these imperfect symmetries hold for other symmetrical predicates too. Thus "Sam meets the Pope" is more acceptable than "The Pope meets Sam", "The bicycle is near the garage" is more acceptable than "The garage is near the bicycle." and so on. From this we conclude that the asymmetry is not in the concepts near, similar, etc. but in the subject-predicate relationship that's in the syntax. I hope to do further studies to study what if any semantic relationship underlies the arguments that force these asymmetries, that is, in what way is South Korea to China as Sam is to the Pope and the bicycle is to the garage.".
