Abstract
The goal of this book was to report on the outcomes of a four-year research program entitled ‘Visual metaphor: A psycholinguistic approach’ (2009–2012). The program comprised three projects that led to various studies and findings. In this chapter I will discuss these findings as reported in the various chapters of this book and suggest some possible avenues for future research that may be derived from our work in relation to new developments in metaphor research. The overall framework of this discussion concerns the productivity of adopting a psycholinguistic approach to the study of visual metaphor.
