Thinking is concrete
Explanation:
Io userei una traduzione più letterale in questo contesto (anche se é giusto che fare riferimento al fenomeno "concrete thinking"), perché la prima parte della frase é dichiarativa...se la seconda parte della frase fosse un predicato invece di una clausola congiuntiva userei "concrete thinking."
