Abstract

95 CVCs were rated for pronounceability (p') on a modification of Underwood and Schulz's 9-point scale. The correlation between testretest mean p' ratings of the CVCs was .99. Correlation between mean p' ratings of CVCs by two different groups of raters was .96. Mean p' ratings of the two groups correlated .88 and .95 with Noble's m' ratings of CVCs. Stability of the means in conjunction with the correlations is evidence that the p' scale may prove to be useful in evaluating CVCs used in verbal learning experiments.
