Chumbley(1986)的加速类别验证实验被部分重复四次,以检验他的发现的普遍性:类别优势而不是典型性,唯一地解释了样例-类别(E-C)和类别-样例(C-E)顺序的高度显著的类别验证反应时(RT)。对肯定回答的多元回归结果显示,与Chumbley的发现相反,典型性在4个实验中使用的12个条件中产生了显著影响,无论是C-E还是E-C条件。然而,类别优势只在使用E-C顺序的条件下产生显著影响,与洛夫图斯(1973)一致。熟悉度是RT无反应的最强唯一预测因子。这些研究结果,结合Chumbley的,表明典型性是一个可能的,但不是一定的,独特的预测类别验证RT,类别验证任务是非常敏感的大量的任务参数。
Four partial replications of Chumbley's (1986) speeded category verification experiments were performed in order to test the generality of his finding that category dominance, but not typicality, uniquely accounted for highly significant amounts of category verification reaction time (RT) for both exemplar-category (E-C) and category-exemplar (C-E) orders. The multiple regression results for yes responses revealed that, contrary to Chumbley's findings, typicality produced significant effects in the 12 conditions used over the 4 experiments, whether C-E or E-C conditions. However, category dominance produced significant effects only in conditions using an E-C order, consistent with Loftus (1973). Familiarity was the strongest unique predictor of RT for no responses. These findings, in combination with Chumbley's, demonstrated that typicality is a likely, but not certain, unique predictor of category verification RT, and that the category verification task is extremely sensitive to a large number of task parameters.
