为Garner（1974，The processing of information and structure，纽约：Wiley）推广的知觉分离性和完整性快速分类测试建立了一个理论框架。该理论概括了一般识别理论（阿什比和汤森，1986年，心理评论93，154-179），通过合并的假设，反应时间减少之间的距离知觉表征的刺激和决策界限。我们发现，如果决策可分性举行，如果没有刺激上下文的影响，那么过滤和冗余任务提供了很好的测试可分性和完整性。然而，如果受试者的反应是最佳的，那么冗余增益是可能的，不管维度是整体的还是可分离的。背景效应也可能使两种测试失效。最后，我们提出了一个新的测试的可分性，可以在过滤任务中收集的数据，这是不容易受到上下文的影响或受试者的决策策略的变化。(C)1994年出版社出版。
A theoretical framework is developed for the speeded classification tests of perceptual separability and integrality, which were popularized by Garner (1974, The processing of information and structure, New York: Wiley). The theory generalizes general recognition theory (Ashby & Townsend, 1986, Psychological Review 93, 154-179) by incorporating the assumption that response time decreases with the distance between the perceptual representation of a stimulus and the decision bound. We show that if decisional separability holds and if there are no stimulus context effects, then the filtering and redundancy tasks provide good tests of separability and integrality. However, if the subject responds optimally then redundancy gains are likely, regardless of whether the dimensions are integral or separable. Context effects also may invalidate both tests. Finally, we propose a new test of separability that can be performed on data collected in the filtering task, which is not susceptible to context effects or to changes in the subject's decision strategy.
