TY - JOUR AU1 - BERLYNE, D. E. AB - PROCEDURE The S sat facing a vertical wooden board, about 4 ft. 6 in. away, with four 24 in. square apertures, numbered 1-4, in a horizontal line a t about eye level. A circular spot of red or white light, c. 2 in. in diameter, could appear in the middle of each aperture. A Palmer timing unit made such stimuli appear for 5 sec. with 5 sec. intervals. S’s right hand rested on a board with fou; Morse keys, numbered 1 4 and arranged in c,n arc. There were thirty Ss, taken from the first- and second-year psychology classes, and divided into three groups of ten as follows. D. E. BERLYNE (1) The immediate-same (IS)group first underwent a habituation phase with stimuli of one colour-red for five S’s (the ‘red subgroup’) and white for the remaining five S’s (the ‘white subgroup’). A random sequence of sixty stimulus patterns was presented. Of these, the first and second thirty consisted of twelve single stimuli (three in each of the four positions) and eighteen stimulus pairs (three in each of the six possible pairs of positions). When a single stimulus appeared, S was to press its corresponding key.
