Abstract
Using category-construction paradigm, this experiment was designed to examine the knowledge effects of the junior high school students′ unsupervised category learning with artificial categories in family resemblance. The results suggest that the subjects would rather construct category by themes than by appearance similarity if parts of the category features can be related to one theme on the basis of prior knowledge, and the more the knowledge-related features exist in category, the more the children categorize by themes. In addition, the results show that domain specificity of artificial categories has no effect on children′s category construction.
Key Wordsjunior high school students, category construction, knowledge effects.
