Intwo experiments on analogical hypothesis generation, we factorially manipulated the presence of domainand object similarities between abase situation and a target phenomenon, and assessed their effects on the transfer of the source’s explanatorystructure before and after an indication to use the base analog as a source foranalogical explanations. Theabsence of any kind of surface similarity led to very low rates of spontaneous transfer. In both experiments, however,either kind of surface similarity sufficed to enhance the spontaneous transfer of the base explanation during the formulation of plausible hypothesesfor the target. The transfer advantage of object and domainsimilarity cannot be attributed to the effect of these variables onpost-access processes, since experimental conditions did not differ with regard to the ability totransfer the base explanation upon explicit request. The effect of domainsimilarity on spontaneous analogical explanation constitutes a relevantfinding, especially given the lack of attention received by thisdimension of similarity in behavioralstudies and computer simulations of analogical retrieval.
