Metaphor and simplification strategies in the design of tourist guidebooks

Metaphorical Perceptions of Preservice Social Studies Teachers About the Communication Skills

“…Metaphors can be used to understand and discover abstract, theoretical or new phenomena (Yob, 2003). They reflect incomplete or implied messages rather than communicating a message clearly (Tsai, Lo, & Tseng, 2017). Metaphors could sometimes lead to expressions that could be considered inaccurate (Caspi, 2018).…”

Effects of map design characteristics on users’ search performance and cognitive load

“…Previous studies on multimedia cartography have been conducted to determine the importance of specific design features in facilitating individual recognition regardless of the medium of representation. For example, Tsai et al (2017) examined how the use of EL 37,4 simplification and metaphor can affect the design of tourist guidebooks. They found that the use of metaphor can be useful to achieve semantic conveyance.…”
