Abstract

Each of eight subjects was visually presented four stimulus classes (pairs of letters combining high or low visual and high or low auditory similarity), each class at two locations of similarity (a pair of letters in a given class requiring the same or different responses). Visual-but not auditorysimilarity affected two-choice discrete reaction time, indicating comparisons based solely on visual characteristics and stressing the important role of mode of stimulus presentation in stimulus/response compatibility.
