Drawing on the idea that metaphors give insight into\r\nimplicit conceptions of abstract entities and processes, we developed a detailed and\r\ndifferentiated set of conceptual metaphors that can be used to study student ideas about\r\nwriting in research, teaching, and interventions. A large sample of undergraduates produced\r\ntheir everyday understanding of writing in short texts beginning with a self-generated\r\nmetaphor. Based on theories from cognitive linguistics, the conceptual metaphors in their\r\ntexts were analyzed in terms of their action quality (transitivity) and spatiality (spatial\r\nprimitives). The undergraduates’ conceptualizations were very heterogeneous. Most\r\nmetaphors depart strongly from scientific approaches to academic writing within cognitive\r\npsychology and sociocultural theory. Roughly half of the metaphors could be collated to one\r\nof four metaphor systems. Depending on the desired degree of abstraction or concreteness,\r\nconceptual metaphors or metaphor systems can be employed in further studies to illuminate\r\nthinking about writing.","lang":"eng"}],"keyword":["metaphor analysis","academic writing","transitivity","spatial primitives"],"language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"issue":"3","year":"2021","date_created":"2021-12-13T10:30:14Z","title":"Building, emptying out, or dreaming?

Drawing on qualitative metaphor analysis, we report a detailed system of students’ conceptual met-aphors of reading. Ourspecific methodologicalapproach to identify the structure of these conceptual metaphorsallowsto analyze subjective agency on a lexical as well as grammatical level.The conceptual metaphors we identified by this method are markedly variable, although they create an overall impression of medium to low agency, that is a reader who is only weakly active or potent.
