Drang naar Samenhang | #23 Metaforen en analogieën

Soms komen we situaties tegen die zo complex of abstract zijn dat we ze moeilijk kunnen begrijpen. Gelukkig kunnen we dan vertrouwen op metaforen en analogieën, twee cognitieve mechanismen die ons helpen tot (enig) begrip te komen. Wat zijn dit nu precies? Hoe beïnvloeden ze ons begrip van een situatie? En hoe vaak komen ze eigenlijk voor? Aan de hand van psychologisch onderzoek bespreken Rolf en Anita antwoorden op deze vragen. Meer over het gebruik van metaforen vind je in hoofdstuk 1 van het boek Drang naar Samenhang: De Psychologie van het Begrijpen. In hoofdstuk 10 komt het begrijpen van grote gebeurtenissen (zoals 9/11) aan bod. Bronnen: Axelrod, R. & Forster, L. (2017). How historical analogies in newspapers of five countries make sense of major events: 9/11, Mumbai and Tahrir Square. Research in Economics, 71, 8-19. Doi: 10.1016/j.rie.2016.08.001.
