Sonar Recognition Training: An Investigation of Whole vs Part and Analytic vs Synthetic Procedures.

Abstract

A series of experiments is described in which 15 methods of teaching identification of complex sonar-like sounds were compared. These included whole and part methods in which subjects were trained on samples of whole sounds, received pre-training on components of the sounds or were exposed to components in the context of whole sounds. The conditions included variations in order in which training items were presented and in the kinds of verbal instruction given. (Author)
