ABSTRACT We report a study examining the role of linguistic context in modulating the influences of individual differences in fluid and crystalized intelligence on comprehension of literary metaphors. Three conditions were compared: no context, metaphor-congruent context, and literal-congruent context. Relative to the baseline no-context condition, the metaphor-congruent context facilitated comprehension of the metaphorical meaning whereas the literal-congruent context impaired it. Measures of fluid and crystalized intelligence both made separable contributions to predicting metaphor comprehension. The metaphor-congruent context selectively increased the contribution of crystalized verbal intelligence. These findings support the hypothesis that a supportive linguistic context encourages use of semantic integration in interpreting metaphors.

语境隐喻理解的个体差异

摘要 我们报告了一项研究,该研究检验了语言环境在调节流动和结晶智力的个体差异对文学隐喻理解的影响中的作用。比较了三个条件:无上下文、隐喻一致上下文和字面一致上下文。相对于基线无上下文条件,隐喻一致的上下文促进了对隐喻意义的理解,而字面一致的上下文损害了它。流体智力和结晶智力的测量都对预测隐喻理解做出了可分离的贡献。隐喻一致的上下文选择性地增加了结晶语言智力的贡献。这些发现支持这样一种假设,即支持性语言环境鼓励在解释隐喻时​​使用语义整合。
