摘要
在隐喻理解的认知研究中,一部分学者认为,人们隐喻理解的策略是比较加工,而另一部分学者认为,在理解隐喻过程中,人们进行的是归类加工而不是比较加工。Gentner在2005年系统提出了隐喻轨迹理论,试图将这两类观点结合起来。她认为新奇隐喻倾向于比较加工,而常规隐喻倾向于归类加工,并且随着隐喻从新奇到常规的发展,隐喻理解会经历一个从比较到归类的加工策略转变。她认为,隐喻的常规性水平是影响隐喻理解加工策略转变的因素。之后,有学者提出不同观点,认为影响隐喻理解加工策略选择的因素不是常规性水平,而是适宜性。也有学者认为,影响因素是多义性。
     基于研究现状,本论文有两个研究目的。第一,在汉语环境下,检验隐喻轨迹理论是否还能适用。第二,研究影响隐喻理解加工策略选择的因素是常规性、适宜性还是多义性。为此,我们进行了三个实验。
     实验一考察了隐喻轨迹理论在汉语隐喻理解过程中是否适用。实验结果证实了汉语隐喻中隐喻轨迹理论同样适用。实验二考察了影响隐喻理解加工策略选择的因素。实验结果验证了我们的观点,认为常规性是影响隐喻理解加工策略选择的因素。而实验三的数据分析显示,适宜性和多义性的中介作用并未被证实。
     本研究得出如下结论:1、在汉语隐喻理解中,隐喻轨迹理论依然有很大的适用性。2、汉语隐喻理解加工策略选择的首要影响因素,是隐喻的常规性水平,而不是隐喻喻体词的适宜性水平或隐喻句的多义性水平。3、汉语新奇隐喻在经历一定学习阶段后,本体词的较高抽象性,会促进加工策略向归类的转变。4、汉语隐喻的语法形式,并不能单独作为影响理解加工策略选择的独立因素。单独考虑语法形式对加工策略选择的影响是没有意义的。
In the metaphor comprehension's cognition research, some scholars believe that the strategy people using to understand metaphor is comparing processing, on the contrary, some other scholars believe that it is a classify processing. In 2005, Gentner propose a theory named "Career of Metaphor". She attempts to make the opposite viewpoints to unify. She thinks that the novel metaphor needs comparing process, but the conventional metaphor needs the classification process, and along with the metaphor from the novelty to the conventional development, we experience one transformation from comparing to classify processing. She also believes that the metaphor conventional level is the main factor that affects the transformation of processing strategy. Afterward, some scholars propose the different viewpoints. They claim that the most important factor that influences metaphor understanding processing strategy chosen is not the conventionality, but the aptness. Also has some scholars believe that the influencing factor is the polysemy.
     Based on the present research situation, the paper has two research goals. First, under Chinese language environment, how suitable can "Career of Metaphor" also be? Second, which is the most important factor that affects the metaphor understanding processing strategy chosen, conventionality, aptness or polysemy? Therefore, we have carried on three formal experiments.
     In the first two experiments we resume "Career of Metaphor" is fit for Chinese metaphor material. And the experimental result has confirmed our viewpoint that conventionality is the key factor in the choosing of metaphor understanding processing strategy. Moreover, the third experiment's data analysis demonstrated that the functions of the aptness and the polysemy has not been confirmed.
     This research draws the following conclusions: First, in Chinese metaphor comprehension, "Career of Metaphor" still has the very big Usability. Second, the most important influencing factor of Chinese metaphor understanding processing strategy chosen, is conventionality, but not aptness or polysemy. Third, after the learning phase, if the target term of Chinese novel metaphor is highly abstractive, it will promote the processing strategy chosen to the classification transformation. Finally, Chinese metaphor's grammatical form, can not be regarded as the independent factor that influence understanding processing strategy chosen. We can't consider the grammatical form as an independent influencing factor in the process of Chinese metaphor comprehension.
