图片命名已成为认知心理学的一个重要实验范式。幼儿在命名反应中比成年人更易变，不太可能知道物体或其名称。结果是，对Sassergrass和Vanderwart（1980）用于对成年人的名字一致性进行评分的两个经典测量的解释（同意的百分比，基于模态名称，和H统计，基于替代名称）将有所不同，因为高比率的“不知道对象”的反应，常见于幼儿，相对于低比率的“不知道对象”的反应更具有成年人的特征。本研究的重点是这个方法的问题，在年轻的法国儿童（3-8岁），使用一组145个Samplegrass-Vanderwart图片。我们的研究结果表明，基于预期名称的协议的百分比是一个更好的衡量图片命名性能比常用的措施。这些规范可从www.psychonomic.org/archive下载。
Picture naming has become an important experimental paradigm in cognitive psychology. Young children are more variable than adults in their naming responses and less likely to know the object or its name. A consequence is that the interpretation of the two classical measures used by Snodgrass and Vanderwart (1980) for scoring name agreement in adults (the percentage of agreement, based on modal name, and the H statistic, based on alternative names) will differ because of the high rate of "don't know object" responses, common in young children, relative to the low rate of "don't know object" responses more characteristic of adults. The present study focused on this methodological issue in young French children (3-8 years old), using a set of 145 Snodgrass-Vanderwart pictures. Our results indicate that the percentage of agreement based on the expected name is a better measure of picture-naming performance than are the commonly used measures.
