| description | Why do people use spatial language to describe social relationships? In
particular, to what extent do they anchor their thoughts about friendship in
terms of space? Three experiments used drawing and estimation tasks to
further explore the conceptual structure of social distance using friendship as
a manipulation. In all three experiments, participants read short narratives and
then drew what they imagined happened during the narrative and estimated passing
time. Overall, the results of these exploratory studies suggest that the
conceptual structure of friendship is linked to thought about space in terms of
path drawing. Results are discussed in light of social distance and
intercharacter interaction. |
