Go Figure: The Strategy of Nonliteral Speech
We develop a model of figurative or indirect speech, which may convey a meaning that differs from its literal meaning. The model yields analytical conditions for speech to be figurative in equilibrium and delivers a number of comparative statics results. For instance, it predicts that the likelihood of figurative speech is greater if the benefit to the listener of correctly understanding the sp...
متن کاملEmergent conditional relations in a Go/No-Go procedure: figure-ground and stimulus-position compound relations.
Past research has demonstrated emergent conditional relations using a go/no-go procedure with pairs of figures displayed side-by-side on a computer screen. The present study sought to extend applications of this procedure. In Experiment 1, we evaluated whether emergent conditional relations could be demonstrated when two-component stimuli were displayed in figure-ground relationships-abstract f...
متن کاملGo (Con)figure: Subgroups, Imbalance, and Isolates in Geographically Dispersed Teams
Research regarding geographically dispersed teams (GDTs) is increasingly common and has yielded many insights into how spatio-temporal and socio-demographic factors affect GDT functioning and performance. Largely missing, however, is research on the effects of the basic geographic configuration of GDTs. In this study, we explore the impact of GDT configuration (i.e., the relative number of team...
متن کاملGo Figure? Body-Shape Motives are Associated with Decreased Physical Activity Participation Among Midlife Women
This study was designed to investigate the relationship between midlife women’s physical activity motives and their participation in physical activity. Cross-sectional qualitative and quantitative data were collected from 59 midlife women, most of whom were well-educated European-Americans (mean age = 45.6 years). Body-shape physical activity motives (i.e., motives related to toning, shaping, a...
متن کاملFemoral venous hemostasis after atrial fibrillation ablation: Is figure-of-eight suture the way to go?
