最近对知觉分类的研究表明,成功的分类依赖于刺激输入与代表适当类别的原型的匹配。在两个家具选择任务中,研究了审美反应通过分类过程来调节的暗示。在第一个实验中,受试者被要求从一个类似于一套家具的陈列中选择家具,而在第二个实验中,他们得到了偏好的选择。这些套装由三种风格中的一种--现代风格、格鲁吉亚风格或新艺术风格--组成,展示由这三种风格的样品组成。第一个实验检验了所选文体分类的可靠性,结果表明存在两个可区分的类别,以现代文集和乔治亚文集为代表。此外,格鲁吉亚和新艺术套装似乎属于一个更广泛的类别,其中格鲁吉亚作品更具典型性,也就是说,是这一类别的更好例子。实验的结果。2与相似性任务的数据有显著的平行关系,支持审美选择反映范畴化和典型性的假说。
Recent research into perceptual categorization has demonstrated that successful classification depends upon the matching of a stimulus input with a prototype representing the appropriate category. The suggestion that aesthetic responses to stimuli are mediated by the categorization process was investigated in two furniture selection tasks. In the first experiment subjects were requested to select items of furniture from a display similar to those in a set, while preference selections were obtained in the second experiment. The sets comprised items in one of three styles — Modern, Georgian or Art Nouveau — with the display made up of examples of all three. The first experiment examined the reliability of classification for the styles selected, with results indicating the existence of two distinguishable categories, represented by the Modern and Georgian sets. Further, the Georgian and Art Nouveau sets appeared to belong to a broader category, in which the Georgian items were more prototypic, that is, were better examples of this category. The results of Expt. 2 showed a marked parallelism with the data from the similarity task and supported the hypothesis that aesthetic choice reflects categorization and prototypicality.
