The Role of Imagery in the Evaluation of Sentences: Imagery or Semantic Factors?
Holyoak, Keith J.
Journal of Verbal Learning and Verbal Behavior, 13, 2, 163-166, Apr 74
This study was based on that of Jorgensen and Kintsch (1973) regarding verification time and ease of imagery of sentences. The present study concluded that the results of Jorgensen and Kintsch do not distinguish the effects of rated imagery on reaction time from the effects of semantic relatedness and semantic complexity.
