Norms for Name and Concept Agreement, Familiarity, Visual Complexity and Image Agreement on a Set of 216 Pictures
Abstract
This paper presents the results of a normative data collection study of 216 pictures which can be used in a wide range of cognitive experiments. Black-and-white line drawings of 216 objects, belonging to 20 large semantic categories, were rated by a sample of 300 first-year psychology students at the University of Ghent. These ratings provided data on several variables of central importance to cognitive processing and memory functioning: name agreement, concept agreement, familiarity, visual complexity and image agreement. The normative data are reported: descriptive summary statistics for these variables can serve as a basis for choosing a subset of pictures and accompanying names to meet with specific stimulus qualities in an experiment.
