通感隐喻(如“黎明如雷”)是描述一种感觉模态的经验的词语或短语将其意义转移到另一种感觉模态的表达方式。在一系列的四个实验中,受试者使用响度,音高和亮度的尺度来评估各种通感(视觉-视觉)隐喻的意义。响度和音高用更大的亮度来比喻自己;反过来,亮度用更大的响度和更高的音高来表达自己。虽然响度和亮度之间存在着隐喻性的联系,但音高和亮度之间的联系更为紧密,也更普遍地适用于不同类型的视觉亮度。人们评价通感隐喻的方式模仿了通感知觉的特征,从而表明知觉中的通感和语言中的通感可能来自同一个来源--来自不同形式的感官体验构成的现象学相似性。
Synesthetic metaphors (such as "the dawn comes up like thunder") are expressions in which words or phrases describing experiences proper to one sense modality transfer their meanings to another modality. In a series of four experiments, subjects used scales of loudness, pitch, and brightness to evaluate the meanings of a variety of synesthetic (auditory-visual) metaphors. Loudness and pitch expressed themselves metaphorically as greater brightness; in turn, brightness expressed itself as greater loudness and as higher pitch. Although loudness thus shared with brightness a metaphorical connection, pitch and brightness showed a connection that was closer and that applied more generally to different kinds of visual brightness. The ways that people evaluate synesthetic metaphors emulate the characteristics of synesthetic perception, thereby suggesting that synesthesia in perception and synesthesia in language both may emenate from the same source-from a phenomenological similarity in the makeup of sensory experiences of different modalities.
