How does this process happen? I cannot answer this question as a psychologist or psycholinguist would; I attempt to answer it from the perspective of a cognitive ...

Conceptualizing Endometriosis Pain Through Metaphors
Perspectives in Biology and Medicine, 2023ABSTRACT: Biomedical and philosophical traditions postulate the experience of pain either as quantifiable or as sociocultural phenomena.

Conceptual Metaphor Meets Conceptual Change
Human Development, 2009This paper argues that the metaphorical representation of concepts and the appropriation of language-based construals can be hypothesized as additional sources of conceptual change alongside those previously proposed.

Are primary conceptual metaphors easier to understand than complex conceptual metaphors?
2011The present behavioural study explores the cognitive processing of primary and complex conceptual metaphors during the first step of the translational process: comprehension.
