  • 20 states per exemplar
  • Validation with 56 observers

Validation Process

  • Observers named exemplars
  • Rated familiarity and visual complexity
  • Identified categories and dynamic states
  • Named final states and rated familiarity of changing states
  • Produced preliminary correlation matrices and category means
