Comparative analysis of the features of the "world image" in people who differ in metaphorical perceptions of "friends" and "foes" is conducted. Metaphor content analysis, testing, narrative analysis, methods of mathematical statistics were applied. For the first time, various parameters of the narrative “world image” of the subject are revealed. It is concluded that the attribution of positive or negative and ambivalent metaphorical characteristics for “friends” and “foes” is associated with a positive or ambivalent “world image” of the “conceptual” or “perceptual” type.
