Abstract
In making “same”-“different” judgments of letter pairs, fourth graders took nearly twice as long to respond as did adult Ss, yet otherwise showed a similar pattern of results, responding faster on “same” than on “different” letter pairs, faster on more frequent than on less frequent letter pairs, faster on upright than on upside-down letter pairs. Contra to Egeth & Blecker (1971) and to Ellis & Chase (1972), the letter orientation effect was not restricted to “ Hsame” pairs. Contra to Krueger (1973), the letter frequency effect was not restricted to “different” pairs.
