You may wqant to contact Keith Horton ([EMAIL PROTECTED]), of the Psych department here at Wilfrid Laurier University. He has collected voluinous data on category choices, and a look-up yesterday confirmed that indeed "carrot" was the most frequently reported exemplar in the "vegetable" category.
BTW, I've used this demonstration with the mathematical operations predominantly resulting in answers of 7 or 11, with good results. That's just the way the demo was presented to me; I have no data on whether certain numerical responses actually prime the carrot response above the rate achieved simply by asking the respondent to name a vegetable. -Max Maxwell Gwynn, PhD [EMAIL PROTECTED] Department of Psychology (519) 884-0710 ext 3854 Wilfrid Laurier University Waterloo, Ontario N2L 3C5 Canada --- You are currently subscribed to tips as: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
