“…Metaforlar eğitim alanında uzun süredir kullanılmaktadır ve yeni bakış açıları oluşturma, hatırlamaya yardımcı olma ve sınıflandırma imkânı sunma gibi fonksiyonlar gerçekleştirmektedir (Skorczynska 2014(Skorczynska , 2345. Metaforların bir öğretim aracı olarak kullanılmasının en önemli nedeni uzun süre akılda tutmayı sağlayıcı bir özelliğe sahip olmasıdır.…”

Bu çalışmanın amacı, öğrencilerin genel muhasebe dersine yönelik algılarını renk, hayvan, besin türü, mevsim, oyun, çiçek ve eşya metaforları aracılığıyla incelemektir. Bu amaç doğrultusunda Erzincan Binali Yıldırım Üniversitesi İktisadi ve İdari Bilimler Fakültesinde öğrenim gören ve genel muhasebe dersini almış olan öğrencilere anket uygulanmıştır. Uygulamaya ilişkin verilerin analizinde frekans, yüzde, Ki-Kare Testi ve içerik analizi yöntemi kullanılmıştır. Araştırma sonucunda öğrencilerin her bir kategori için en yaygın olarak kullandıkları metaforlar sırayla siyah, pırasa, kış, yılan, kaktüs, saklambaç ve hesap makinesidir. Gen el olarak öğrencilerin söz konusu yedi metafora ilişkin algılarında olumsuz anlamın daha çok kullanıldığı tespit edilmiştir. Ayrıca öğrencilerin genel muhasebe dersine ilişkin algıları arasında "zor, sıkıcı ve karmaşık bir ders olarak muhasebe", "gerekli, faydalı, önemli bir ders olarak muhasebe" ve "dikkat ve çok çalışma gerektiren bir ders olarak muhasebe" algılarının ön plana çıktığı görülmektedir. Son olarak öğrencilerin muhasebe mesleğini seçme düşüncesi ile renk, mevsim, çiçek ve eşya metaforlarına yükledikleri anlamlar arasında istatistiki olarak anlamlı bir ilişkinin olduğu tespit edilmiştir.

The aim of this research is to determine and compare the perceptions (metaphors) related to the "aesthetic" concept of the students, studying in the Primary Education and PreSchool Education Departments which take part in the Department of Elementary Education and in the Art Education Department that takes part in the Department of Fine Arts Education in Education Faculties. The data collection process of the research was carried out with the voluntary participation of the 3rd and 4th year students of the Departments of Primary Education, PreSchool Education and Art Education. The study group of the research consisted of a total of 263 teacher candidates. In order to determine the perception about the "aesthetic" concept metaphorically, participants were asked to complete the sentence "Aesthetic is like ......., because .........." The data obtained in this direction were analysed by qualitative and quantitative data analysis techniques. Metaphors generated by the participants were divided into categories after analysing with the content analysis method from qualitative research methods in terms of their common features. As a result of the analyses made, it has been observed that students of Departments of Art Education, Preschool Education and Primary Education emphasize that the aesthetic concept is a concept based on pleasure. The quality of changing and beautifying the environment and the case that is regarded as a surgical intervention of the aesthetic concept were the least emphasized features by the students.

“…Cameron (2007Cameron ( , 2008 further pointed to the fact that speakers often used metaphor to align themselves, especially when they talked about their emotions (for instance, in reconciliation talk). This type of affective function of metaphor has also been found to be centrally involved in accomplishing the persuasive goals of business training talk, where the emotional alignment of the speaker with the audience plays a crucial role (Skorczynska, 2014). Kaal (2012, p. 55) rightly points out in her study that the works on metaphor mentioned in the paragraphs above are difficult to compare because of different metaphor identification methods used and also, as previously mentioned, due to the absence of a uniform approach to register.…”

“…The studies mentioned in the previous section point to a range of functions detected in conversations considered as a dynamic flow of interaction: ideational, affective and textual. Much attention has been paid in them to the fact that metaphors convey emotions and evaluation (Cameron, 2003(Cameron, , 2007(Cameron, , 2008McCarthy, 1998;Skorczynska, 2014). As our interest lies in patterns of interaction, we decided to focus on the interpersonal function (Halliday, 1994), referring to how people interact and construct social relations between them.…”

This study looks into the patterns of metaphor use in the family register of scripted sitcom conversations. Previous studies of metaphor in conversation adopted different approaches to the concept of register, resulting in a rich but complex picture (Cameron, 2003, 2007, 2008; Deignan, Littlemore & Semino, 2013; Kaal, 2012). This research attempts to reduce such complexity by using an approach to register based on closely defining communicative settings and the participants’ roles (Giménez-Moreno, 2006). In this way, we were able to focus on the register used by family members and close friends and the contexts of private oral communication, as opposed to other possible registers characteristic of professional conversations or those between friends. The study provides data on the frequency, typology, grammatical form and function of the metaphors used in the fictional dialogues between family members and close friends from two British sitcoms, “Gavin & Stacey” and “The Royle Family”. The findings, in general, confirm the patterns of metaphor use in naturally-occurring (UK) conversation, but show lower frequency ranges than other more purpose-oriented contexts. The main contribution of this study is the evaluation of metaphor as an ‘appraisal resource’ (Martin & White, 2005) and its frequent use in assessing the participants’ attitudes. The study suggests that defining register in terms of communicative setting and participants’ roles can help to provide comparable data on metaphor variation.
