图形拓扑性质对相似性判断和分类的影响

THE GEOMETRY-CHARACTERS AND TOPOLOGY-CHARACTERS OF FIGURES INFLUENCE SIMILARITY JUDGMENT AND CATEGORIZATION

使用Stevens数量估计法研究了限时和不限时呈现材料条件下,图形的平面几何特征和拓扑特征对相似性判断及分类的影响。结果表明:(1)材料特征对图形的相似性估计的影响显著,平面几何特征的差异对应着更大的差异估计量。(2)呈现方式对平面几何特征差异的估计影响大,而并不影响对拓扑差异的估计。(3)男性对拓扑特征差异的估计较女性大;对平面几何特征差异的估计没有显著的性别差异。(4)不限时呈现时被试倾向于按平面几何特征分类;限时呈现时倾向于按拓扑特征分类。

Stevens′s law was used to observe the influence of geometry-characters and topology-characters of figures in similarity judgment and categorization in the current work. What the results show are as follows: First, geometry-characters and topology-characters of figures made great influence in similarity judgment and categorization. Second, under untachistoscopic vision, geometry-characters of figures were the foundations in similarity judgment obviously, on the contrary, vision means made less importance in similarity judgment. Third, the gender difference made influence on topology-characters of figures in similarity judgment. Fourth, under either vision, the more broaden of geometry-characters of figures, the less changing geometry-characters of figures, and the less similar reports in similarity judgment.
