description | The experiments revealed whether individual participants
are sensitive to exemplar information in the form of within-category
correlations between stimulus dimensions after training on large
overlapping categories. Participants were trained in 1 of 2
categorization conditions. The sign of the correlation between
dimensions differed across conditions, but the categorization rules
that best separated the categories were identical. An unannounced
attribute-prediction task followed categorization training. Several
participants produced predictions consistent with the correct
correlation between the dimensions. For other participants, the
predictions reflected the correlation only within the region they
had associated with the given category, even though the categories
overlapped, suggesting that the decision boundary was explicitly
represented in memory. Finally, for other participants, no
correlational information appeared to be accessible for the
prediction task. |
