Primes¶
- Comparison
- Contrast is comparison whose dimension selection and output relation are oriented toward difference: the operation runs, but the analyst foregrounds the gap rather than the overlap, a foregrounding that Markman and Gentner (1996) show empirically as the alignable-difference reading produced by the same structural-alignment machinery that yields commonalities.
This sourceShows that difference judgments (alignable differences / contrast) are produced by the same structural-alignment process that yields commonalities, and that side-by-side placement prompts the viewer to construct an alignment — supports the operation/reading distinction and the comparison → contrast direction.
