Die Erhebung und Bewertung von Zeugenaussagen im Strafprozess
Zeugenaussagen im Kontext der juristischen Aufarbeitung von Kindesmissbrauch stellen Prozessbeteiligte vor besondere Herausforderungen. Aus revisionsrichterlicher Sicht wird hier die Beweiswürdigung näher beleuchtet. Psychowissenschaftlich sind verschiedene, aufeinander bauende und sich ergänzende Beiträge enthalten, die die Themen Gedächtnis und Erinnerungen, mögliche oder vermeintliche Alternativen zur Aussagepsychologie und der – gefährdeten –…
Gesturing the source domain
Gesture is aptly described as a “backdoor” to cognition ( Sweetser, 2007 , p. 203). Co-speech gesture has been shown to aid in the representation of abstract concepts ( Parrill & Sweetser, 2004 ) and, specifically, encode metaphorical source domains ( Cienki, 1998 ). This paper examines how co-speech gesture aligns with spoken and written narrative to support a spatially based representation of gender identity. Repeated gestural patterns include …
Lexico-grammatical alignment in metaphor construal
This study concerns the distribution of metaphorical lexis in discrete syntactic constructions. Source and target seed language from established conceptual metaphors in economic discourse is used to catalogue the specific patterns of how metaphorical pairs align in five syntactic constructions: A-NP, N-N, NP-of-NP, V-NP, and X is Y. Utilizing the Corpus of Contemporary American English (Davies, Mark. 2008–present. The corpus of contemporary Ameri…
Finding source domain triggers
Much recent research on figurative language and conceptual metaphor theory derives from corpus examination, and analysts are increasingly focused on the development of quantificational tools to reveal co-occurrence patterns indicative of source and target domain associations. Some mappings between source and target are transparent and appear in collocation patterns in natural language data. However, other metaphors, especially those that structur…
Exploring the Metaphorical Models of Transgenderism
This article explores the metaphorical models English speakers employ in their understanding of transgenderism. Transgender is the term ascribed to those who have begun or completed a change in their sex characteristics from male to female or female to male. Using both qualitative and quantitative measures, I examine an archive of narrative data and a transition-specific corpus to show how spoken and written narrative support a spatially based re…
Understanding the Self
This paper investigates the distribution of reflexive and nonreflexive pronouns in the prepositional phrase, concluding that multiple semantic factors play a role in the appearance of one pronoun over the other. The distributional trends in English are explained by referencing the crucial role space plays in grammar, and the resulting implications for Binding Theory (Chomsky 1995) are discussed. The motivating forces for the corpus distribution a…
