An attempt to model the relation between intrinsic moments and their representation in human cognitive structures is presented in the theory of conceptual spaces. The theory is based on the notion of Quality Structure. The idea is that for several perceivable or conceivable moment universals there is an associated quality structure in human cognition. For example, height and mass are associated with one-dimensional structures with a zero point isomorphic to the half-line of nonnegative numbers. Other properties such as color and taste are represented by multidimensional structures.
