隐喻的交互作用理论认为，隐喻可以引起与隐喻的主题或载体无关的特征的出现。我们提出了两项关于涌现特征的研究。在第一项研究中，我们发现在隐喻加工过程中产生的60%以上的特征是突现特征。我们还发现，给参与者明确的指示来使用图像对紧急特征的数量没有任何显著的影响。在第二个实验中，我们使用反应时间作为紧急特征激活水平的指标。当使用主题或车辆启动词进行测试时，紧急特征比仅使用主题和仅使用车辆的特征需要更长的响应时间。当以完整的隐喻为先导进行测试时，仅限主题和仅限车辆的特性提供了较长的响应时间。但涌现特征并没有改变它们从一个初始条件到另一个初始条件的持续时间。我们认为这些结果与隐喻的相互作用理论是一致的。
The interaction theory of metaphor holds that a metaphor can cause emergence of features that are not associated with the topic or vehicle of the metaphor. We present 2 studies on emergent features. In the 1st study, using a production task, we found that over 60% of the features produced during metaphor processing are emergent features. We also found that giving explicit instructions to the participants to use imagery does not have any significant impact on the number of emergent features. In the 2nd experiment, we used response time as an indicator of the activation levels of emergent features. The emergent features require a longer response time than topic-only and vehicle-only features, when tested with topic or vehicle primes. When tested with the full metaphor as the prime, the topic-only and vehicle-only features gave long response times. But the emergent features did not change their duration from one prime condition to another. We suggest these results are consistent with the interaction theory of metaphor.
