İnsan zihni, sembolik ifadeleri duyduğunda milisaniyeler içinde anlamlandırabilir. Ancak hangi bilişsel süreçlerin metaforların çözümlenmesinde rol aldığı ve bu mekanizmaların çocukluktan yetişkinliğe nasıl geliştiği konusunda henüz yanıtı bilinmeyen birçok soru bulunmaktadır. Bu makale, metafor çözümleme sürecini açıklayan iki temel modeli psikodilbilim çerçevesinde inceleyerek, metafor algılama yetisinin gelişimine etki eden unsurları ve bu alanda Türkçede yapılmış çalışmaları incelemektedir. Türkçede metafor çözümlenmesi üzerine yapılan deneysel çalışmaların gitgide artmasının literatüre hız kazandırdığı görülmüştür. Bu makale, bu konuda Türkçede nörodilbilim ve psikodilbilim çerçevesinde daha çok çalışma yapılması gerektiğini göstererek, bilişsel bozukluğu olan yetişkinlerde ve atipik ve tipik gelişim gösteren çocuklarda metafor çözümleme süreçlerinin nasıl olduğu üzerine yapılacak yeni araştırmalara çağrı yapmaktadır

Humans have an innate capacity to comprehend the communicative intentions behind utterances as soon as they hear them. However, there are still many unresolved questions regarding which cognitive mechanisms help people to recognize metaphorical expressions and how these mechanisms develop from childhood to adulthood. This article aims to examine two models of metaphor processing, summarizes the factors affecting the process of metaphor comprehension, and presents a literature review on metaphor processing in Turkish. This systematic review demonstrates that Turkish literature is advancing with more experimental studies in the field of metaphor processing and calls on further psycholinguistic research to understand how individual differences influence the processing and acquisition of metaphors.
