{ "pk": 32316, "title": "The Role of Semantic Similarity in the Comprehension of Metaphor", "subtitle": null, "abstract": "According to the comparison view, preexisting similarities between the constituent terms of a metaphorical sentence are an important source of information for generating a figurative meaning. The interaction approach, by contrast, claims that similarity is not an antecedent but a product of comprehension. We shall argue, however, that each of these approaches is too narrow to provide a complete and exhaustive account of metaphor comprehension. Instead, both theories point out to two different but complementary cognitive processes. We present three experiments that support the theoretical distinction between <i>analysis</i>-based vs. <i>synthesis</i>-based processes in the comprehension of metaphor.", "language": "eng", "license": { "name": "", "short_name": "", "text": null, "url": "" }, "keywords": [], "section": "Long Papers", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/5216k0j8", "frozenauthors": [ { "first_name": "Matthias", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Nueckles", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "University of Illinois at Chicago, Department of Psychology", "department": "" }, { "first_name": "Dietmar", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Janetzko", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "Psychology Department, Columbia University", "department": "" } ], "date_submitted": null, "date_accepted": null, "date_published": "1997-01-01T18:00:00Z", "render_galley": null, "galleys": [ { "label": "PDF", "type": "pdf", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/cognitivesciencesociety/article/32316/galley/23381/download/" } ] }
