Abstract
The aim of this study was exploring the role of labels in acquisition of information about new objects depending on the learning strategy. In order to reach this aim we investigated efficiency of identification of new objects presented through fast mapping or explicit encoding taking into consideration eye movement patterns. 32 subjects were presented with 8 new fruits 8 times each. The images were accompanied with unique audial labels in 50% of the cases. Visual search of the target image among distractors was used as an assessment task. The results showed that fast mapping speeded learning of information about new objects compared to explicit encoding. We found positive impact of unique labels of new fruits on the results of visual search task. This impact was stronger for fast mapping compared to explicit encoding.
