Multiple Choice
Categorization is plainly influenced by judgments about resemblance, but it is also influenced by factors other than resemblance. Which of the following is NOT part of the evidence indicating the importance of these other factors?
A) People sometimes judge an object to be in a category despite the fact that it has virtually no resemblance to other objects in that category.
B) Resemblance plays a key role in the use of prototypes but plays no role in the well-documented use of exemplars.
C) Resemblance is typically determined by relatively superficial perceptual features, but sometimes categorization depends on deeper essential properties of the category.
D) In order to make judgments according to resemblance, we must be guided by other beliefs about which properties matter; otherwise, our judgments of resemblance may be guided by irrelevant attributes of the object.
