Category Coherence in Cross-Cultural Perspective.
Malt, Barbara C.
Cognitive Psychology, v29 n2 p85-148 Oct 1995
Major proposals that psychologists have made about how humans segment their world into categories are reviewed. The anthropological literature that bears on the same issues is explored, noting its implications for psychological theory. Cross-cultural data provide substantial constraints for theories of category coherence. (SLD)
