Two experiments were performed with experienced sonar | |
technician listeners in an effort to identify perceptual | |
dimensions underlying the classification of aurally | |
presented sonar signals. It was found that: (1) where | |
common sets of sonar signals are used as stimuli, the | |
group perceptual space of naive and experienced sonar | |
listeners is highly similar; (2) experienced sonar | |
listeners attach different salience or importance to | |
particular dimensions than do naive listeners; (3) the | |
number of dimensions in the group perceptual space is a | |
function of the representativeness of the signal set; (4) | |
most sonar signals are quite complex perceptually, and | |
project on several dimensions; (5) very strong | |
projections on some of the experimentally identified | |
dimensions are associated with a high degree of | |
classification success, but signals that lack strong | |
projections on any dimension are often erroneously | |
classified; (6) experienced sonar listeners classify | |
signals in accord with how strongly the signals resemble | |
certain target class stereotypes; this may or may not | |
result in successful classification of particular | |
examples. | |
