Abstract
"Recognition of random shapes varying in complexity and association value was studied following four levels of practice in labeling. Complexity was inversely related to recognition of prototype shapes and to correct rejection of variations of the prototypes. Association value was positively related to selection responses, both correct and incorrect, but not significantly related to correct recognitions. Labeling practice was not significantly related to any of the response types scored." 15 refs. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2006 APA, all rights reserved)
