Talk:Idealized cognitive model

This article should probably be moved to Cognitive model or something like that (I note that Cognitive model already hosts another article). In Women, fire and dangerous things, Lakoff seems to use the terms interchangeably but he isn't very clear about it. ICMs mainly figure in his accounts of categorization and color perception, and further on in the book (p281-91 for example) he's often using cognitive model instead. I'm not sure which of the two Fauconnier uses, though I think Lakoff cites him as saying that 'cognitive models structure mental space'. Anyone? &mdash; mark &#9998; 07:42, 30 September 2005 (UTC)
 * I think Lakoff and some other linguists can be quite sloppy with the terminology. In my experience, ICM is the standard term, used by Fauconnier. Frankly, both articles could also be merged with Framing (communication theory), which is simply the application of ICMs in discourse.--Wiglaf 11:23, 30 September 2005 (UTC)
 * I dont't agree with you in merging the article with Framing (communication theory). In fact, I don't agree with the definition proposed in this article, where ICMs are said to be the same as Frames. Moreover, this article seems quite short for me. What can we do? --Betomg88 (talk) 14:56, 18 December 2009 (UTC)
