520 | |a In the three studies reported here, an attempt was made to determine whether adult native speakers of English can agree on the choice of phonetic labels for visually presented geometric figures. It was the purpose of these studies to obtain evidence in support of the "phonetic symbolism" hypothesis. An initial study and two replications were performed with eight adults who spoke only English serving as subjects in each experiment. The subjects agreed about the relationship between vowel sounds and the size of figure regardless of shape. The sound [a] (as in "father") was more often chosen for large figures while [i] (as in "beat") was more often chosen for small. A less striking but discernible trend was observed for the labelling of figures with vowel sounds. It was tentatively concluded that, for English speakers, there does exist unrecognized yet consistent bases for relating sounds and visual stimuli. (Authors/JD) | ||
