Prior knowledge has been shown to facilitate both supervised and unsupervised category learning, but questions remain about how this facilitation occurs. This article describes two experiments that investigate the effects of prior knowledge on unsupervised learning, using the exemplar-memory task of Clapper and Bower (2002). Experiment 1 demonstrates that prior knowledge facilitates learning in this task, as expected, and that this facilitation extends to both knowledge-relevant and knowledge-irrelevant features of the new categories. Experiment 2 shows that knowledge facilitates learning not only by increasing the probability that people will discover separate categories, but also by making the features of different categories seem less interchangeable, thereby reducing interference an...

SATURDAY NIGHT SPECIAL: While morphing into the couch Saturday night (they might have to lance it off my posterior like a boil) and watching Queen Latifah smoulder on the screen in The Last Holiday, I couldn't help but wonder why there wasn't a football game on. And I have to believe that NFL fans across the continent, while poking their eyes out watching similar pap, were thinking the same thing. It's a holiday weekend and after battling through malls and gatecrasher sales all day, what would have been better than some Saturday night smash mouth? The NFL scheduled a game on Friday night, which also happened to be Christmas, and missed an opportunity at a captive audience on Saturday. Queen Latifah was good and all, we're just saying a little football would have fit perfectly into our s...
