Résumé
Figurative expressions in metaphor form (e .g., Marriage
is a journey) seem stronger and deeper than expressions
in simile foam (e .g., Marriage is like a journey) . We ran
a study to examine the nature of these judgments.
Participants read short paragraphs describing either
object attributes or relational structure and then made a
forced choice of the grammatical form of a figurative
expression mentioning the target concept referred to in
the passages. The results showed that the metaphor form
was chosen more often (I) for expressions with
conventional bases, and (2) when figurative statements
followed contexts containing relational information . We
speculate about a possible linkage between
conventionalization and relationality .
