An analysis of meaning
摘要:
A theoretical-experimental analysis of the attribute of meaning in verbal stimulus material. Like habit, meaning is a purely empirical construct. Meanings are postulated to increase as a simple linear function of the number of S-multiple R connections established in an organism's history. A word list of 96 dissyllables was presented to a sample of 119 USAF recruits. Defining meaning operationally in terms of mean frequency of written associations made within a 60-second time interval, a psychological performance scale of m-values is developed. The significance of the m-scale for research in verbal and perceptual-motor learning is discussed. 31 references.
