AB - Compared 3 methods of mapping cognitive structure. Free and controlled word association tests and a tree-construction test, all using the same 15 mechanics concept words as stimuli or units, were administered to 28 graduate science students. Very similar patterns of relations among the words, well represented by a digraph model, were revealed by the 3 techniques, and graphic representations of these structures were produced. No agreement was obtained among individual measures of the degree of concept interconnectedness derived from each test. (30 ref)
