Amnesia and metamemory demonstrate the importance of both metaphors
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 04 February 2010
Abstract
The correspondence metaphor is useful in developing functional models of memory. However, the storehouse metaphor is still useful in developing structural and process models of memory. Traditional research techniques explore the structure of memory; everyday techniques explore the function of memory. We illustrate this point with two examples: amnesia and metamemory. In each phenomenon, both metaphors are useful.
