Visual Perception: A Transfer of “Products” Found in the Key to Learning

Abstract

Research studies in the verbal production of a broad spectrum of subjects indicate that a certain type of verbal behavior (paradigmatic) was present in subjects who had achieved some success in formal schooling, while low achievers displayed a type of verbal response classified as syntagmatic. The author states that the “products” of the intellect requires a mastery of units, relations, classes, systems, transformations, and implication, and describes the implementation of a “product” scale in teaching the visual discrimination of letters.
