[EN]Familiarity, emotionality, motor activity, memorability, and vividness of visual imagery ratings, on 7-
point scales, were collected for 536 Spanish action-related sentences, including a corpus of 439
phrases originally normed in Swedish, German, and Croatian (Arar & Molander, 1996; Molander &
Arar, 1998; Molander, Arar, Mavrinac, & Janig, 1999) and 97 new sentences describing actions
usually performed using different body postures and face or hand movements. These norms constitute
the only available set of ratings for action sentences in Spanish including those dimensions to date, and
they allow for the design of studies aimed at empirically exploring the relationship between action,
language, and cognition with well-controlled materials in Spanish-speaking samples of participants.
