Citations in the corpus

• Lines on feeling: foregrounding, aesthetics and meaning (2007, background): “This complies with earlier results (e.g. van Peer, 1986; Miall and Kuiken, 1994; Hakemulder, 2004) and partly Language and Literature 2007 16(2) confirms our expectations based on foregrounding theory.”
• Effects of Literature on Empathy and Self-Reflection: A Theoretical-Empirical Framework (2015, unknown): “Readers also seem to aesthetically appreciate foregrounding (e. g., Hakemulder 2004), although the moderating influence of reading experience has to be further explored (see Hakemulder/Van Peer in press, for mixed results).”
• Effects of "literariness" on emotions and on empathy and reflection after reading (2016, background): “In most empirical research on foregrounding, manipulations are done on the word and sentence level (e.g., Hakemulder, 2004; Miall & Kuiken, 1994; Van Peer, 1986; Van Peer, Hakemulder, & Zyngier, 2007), changing, for example, novel metaphors into dead metaphors.”
