Chapter 5 introduced the idea that combinations of image schemas represent the underlying conceptualisations of temporally complex image schemas and simple events. Likewise, Chapter 6 relied on the idea that concepts could be partly defined by their involved image schemas. In this chapter, these ideas are further investigated empirically by presenting an experimental study that investigates the image schemas behind a series of common objects.
