Abstract

We propose that carrying out a similarity comparison of two objects or scenes requires that their components be aligned in a manner akin to analogical mapping . We present an experiment which supports this claim and then examine a computer simulation of these results which is consistent with the idea that a process of mapping and alignment occurs during similarity judgments .
