Deliberate Metaphor Theory: Basic assumptions, main tenets, urgent issues (2017, background): “…and psychological work on metaphor is not ignored, as objected by Gibbs and Chen (2017), but given a different interpretation: not all metaphor (or perhaps even most metaphor) is not comprehended (as opposed to interpreted, see Gibbs 1994) by online cross-domain mapping (Steen 2007, 2008).”
Evaluating Conceptual Metaphor Theory (2011, background): “Debates about CMT often raise these and other questions (Steen, 2007), with some scholars suggesting that these issues make CMT difficult, if not impossible, to potentially falsify (Murphy, 1996; Vervaeke & Kennedy, 1996), particularly in regard to the circularity of the theory (Haser, 2005; and…”
DMIP: A Method for Identifying Potentially Deliberate Metaphor in Language Use (2018, background): “…to the source domain as a distinct domain of reference is the central feature of deliberate metaphor (Steen 2015).6 This can be investigated from two fundamentally different, but complementary perspectives: a semiotic and a behavioural perspective (Krennmayr 2011; Steen 2007; cf.
