为了确定从大学生中收集的类别规范是否适用于老年人的研究,在三个年龄组中各有25名男性和25名女性,Young(20至39岁),中(40至59岁)及(60至79岁),被要求为从Battig和Montague(1969)规范中选择的21个类别中的每一个类别产生尽可能多的类别成员。目前的主题和Battig和蒙塔古的反应之间的相关性是高的所有三个年龄组的研究。它的结论是,对于大多数的类别研究在这里,它是适当的使用Battig和蒙塔古规范时,选择刺激与中年和老年人的实验。进一步的分析表明,老年组比青年组和中年组每个类别的人均答复更少。受试者间变异性分析表明,老年组受试者产生独特特异质反应的可能性低于年轻受试者。
In order to determine whether category norms collected from college students are appropriate for research with older adults, 25 men and 25 women in each of three age groups, Young (20 to 39 years), Middle (40 to 59 years) and Old (60 to 79 years), were asked to produce as many category members as possible for each of 21 categories chosen from those included in the Battig and Montague (1969) norms. The correlations between the responses of the present subjects and Battig and Montague's were high for all three age groups studied. It is concluded that for most of the categories studied here, it is appropriate to use the Battig and Montague norms when choosing stimuli for experiments with middle-aged and elderly adults. Additional analyses revealed that the Old group produced fewer responses per person per category than the Young and Middle groups. Analyses of between-subject variability indicated that the subjects in the Old group were less likely than the younger subjects to produce unique, idiosyncratic responses.
