Resumo: This paper, which consists of an integrative literature review, aims at evaluating recent evidence about the relationship between performance in tasks involving executive functions and the understanding and production of conceptual metaphors. The descriptors “metaphors” and “executive functions”, as well as terms related to the latter, were searched in Pubmed, Scielo and Lilacs databases. After following inclusion and exclusion criteria, seven papers with recent debates about the theme were selected. From the experiments described in the reviewed studies, it is possible to conclude that there is a relationship between performance in terms of working memory and inhibitory control and the understanding and production of metaphors. Also, aspects such as age, vocabulary size and degree of familiarity with metaphors are aspects that have modulated the relations between executive functioning and the understanding and/or production of metaphors.

Para tanto, os descritores “metáforas” e “funções executivas”, bem como termos relacionados a este último, foram pesquisados nas bases de dados Pubmed, Scielo e Lilacs. Após seguir critérios de inclusão e de exclusão, foram selecionados sete artigos que trazem debates recentes acerca do tema. A partir dos experimentos descritos nos estudos revisados, verificou-se que há relação entre desempenho em termos de memória de trabalho e de controle inibitório e a compreensão e a produção de metáforas. Ainda, os fatores idade, tamanho de vocabulário e grau de familiaridade com as metáforas são aspectos que modularam as relações entre funcionamento executivo e a compreensão e/ou produção de metáforas.Editora da PUCRS - ediPUCRS2018-10-19info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br/ojs/index.php/letronica/article/view/3040010.15448/1984-4301.2018.s.30400Letrônica; Vol. 11, No. supl (2018): Discourse, Memory, Otherness; s100-s112Letrônica; Vol. 11, n. supl (2018): Discurso, Memória, Alteridade; s100-s1121984-430110.15448/1984-4301.2018.sreponame:letrônicainstname:Pontifícia Universidade Católica do Rio Grande do Sul (PUCRS)instacron:PUC_RSporhttps://revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br/ojs/index.php/letronica/article/view/30400/17316Copyright (c) 2018 Letrônicainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessBillig, Johanna DagortVanin, Aline AverWagner, Gabriela Peretti2019-10-15T21:33:52Zoai:ojs.revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br:article/30400Revistahttps://revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br/ojs/index.php/letronicaPRIhttps://revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br/ojs/index.php/letronica/oailetronica@pucrs.br||ivanetemileski@gmail.com1984-43011984-4301opendoar:2019-10-15T21:33:52letrônica - Pontifícia Universidade Católica do Rio Grande do Sul (PUCRS)false
