Abstract
In 1972, Roydes and Osgood studied the tachistoscopic recognition of words that can be used as either nouns or verbs and found an interaction of predominant form class by set to perceive a given form class. Three experiments were done to test the generality of that finding. At luminances appropriate for reading (7 and 32 mlam), no such interaction was found, either with Roydes and Osgood's words (regardless of whether the subjects' instructions were to guess or to report accurately) or with two new lists of words that can belong to either form class.
