ARES, Osvaldo et al. Nuevos roles para propiedades y relaciones en la estructura de una analogía. Sig. Fil [online]. 2006, vol.8, n.16, pp.81-96. ISSN 1665-1324.

In this paper we deal with the problem of stating what an analogy relation is, according it is usually used on teaching natural sciences. According our proposal, two situations are said to be analogous if their representations includes isomorphical subsets. We analyze the elements that can be involved in setting the analogy relation up, namely, particulars, properties and relations. We point out the features that make a property relevant to the analog relation. We also maintain that the relations picked up in one situation could differ with those of the other situation intented to be mapped.

Keywords : Analogy; teaching; properties; relations; representation.
