“…Producer-for-product metonymy (Dickens) has not revealed any differences in reading times (McElree et al, 2006), eye-tracking (Frisson & Pickering, 1999) or ERP research (Weiland-Breckle & Schumacher, 2017), as long as the source concept is known (see Frisson & Pickering, 1999, 2007 for studies with a newly introduced concept such as Needham as an author). A speed-accuracy trade-off study of producer-for-product metonymy showed a lower probability to arrive at a meaningful interpretation (asymptotic level) in comparison to the literal control reading, but no differences in processing dynamics (Bambini et al, 2021). Likewise, place-for-institution metonymy (the university called) as well as place-for-event metonymy (she protested during Vietnam) also registered no effects (Frisson & Pickering, 1999;Bott et al, 2016) nor did content-for-container metonymy (hand me the beer) (Schumacher, 2013).…”
