Tabular data is pervasive in the form of spreadsheets and relational databases. Although tables often describe multivariate data without explicit network semantics, it may be advantageous to explore the data modeled as a graph or network for analysis. Even when a given table design conveys some static network semantics, analysts may want to look…

A previous study found that 5-year-old children of schizophrenic mothers were impaired on visual attention tasks as compared with controls. No difference was observed in 6-year-olds, however. This study reexamined the attentive behavior of some of these children 3 years later. (Editor)

This paper is an attempt toward the goal of developing an integrated quantitative theory of visual stimulus selection. (Author/RK)

The present research is concerned with preference for visual (polygon) complexity versus simplicity in relation to national membership, using adult subjects from five nations (cultures) four groups of which were temporarily resident in the U.S.A. (Author)

Heart rate indexes of reaction time (RT) were investigated in male college students. (Author)

Pigeons learned discrimination rapidly and responded differentially to pictures seen for the first time. The essential feature of a natural discrimination--which is the ability to cope with natural ranges of variation--was approached and earlier experimental results were extended using other classes of stimuli.

Describes methodology and results of a study examining the role of layout and graphic design in the legibility of instructional text displayed on cathode ray tubes. This report includes a multidimensional scaling analysis, an analysis of the stimuli and independent variables, and labeling and dimensions using adjective and interview data. (MBR)

The ETS Matched Pictures test was used in the longitudinal study to measure children's comprehension of certain grammatical features, such as past and future tenses, negation and prepositions. The task materials for both I and II consist of a set of cards, with each card having a pair of black and white pictures. Both pictures in a pair contain…
