Noles和Gelman（2012）试图批判性地重新评估语言标签影响儿童对视觉相似性的判断的说法。他们报告了一项实验的结果，该实验使用了Sloutsky和Fisher（2004）任务的修改版本，并得出结论：“标签通常不会影响儿童的感知相似性判断;相反，儿童依赖标签进行相似性判断似乎可归因于先前研究中使用的方法论方法的缺陷”（第890页）。在这篇评论中，我们证明了这些结论是基于不充分的分析和统计报告，并与诺尔斯和赫尔曼自己的数据不一致。相反，他们的数据显示了Sloutsky和Fisher（2004）的完美复制，并提供了进一步的证据表明语言标签影响幼儿的相似性判断。
Noles and Gelman (2012) attempt to critically reevaluate the claim that linguistic labels affect children's judgments of visual similarity. They report results of an experiment that used a modified version of Sloutsky and Fisher's (2004) task and conclude that “labels do not generally affect children's perceptual similarity judgments; rather, children's reliance on labels to make similarity judgments appears to be attributable to flaws in the methodological approaches used in prior studies”(p. 890). In this comment we demonstrate that these conclusions are based on inadequate analyses and reporting of statistics and are inconsistent with Noles and Gelman's own data. Instead, their data show a perfect replication of Sloutsky and Fisher (2004) and present further evidence that linguistic labels affect similarity judgment of young children.
