Global similarity accounts of embedded-category designs: Tests of the Global Matching models
Abstract: This paper addresses two Global Matching predictions in embedded-category designs: the within-category choice advantage in forced-choice recognition (superior discrimination for test choices comprising a same-category distractor); and the category length effect in forced-choice and old/new...

The old–new data is analyzed using a Bayesian approach (), which evaluates the evidence for both the null and the alternative hypothesis. Across two experiments, no within-category choice advantage was observed for the associative or the taxonomic categories. A category length effect was observed for the associative categories in forced-choice recognition, but not for the taxonomic categories. Additionally, the Bayesian analysis indicated that only a minority of participants evidenced a category length effect in old/new recognition. Such findings question the theoretical underpinnings of the Global Matching models. Namely, that global similarity drives interference in recognition. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: N holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
