Legend:
The nine non-namable visual shapes used in the visual statistical learning task. A total of 33 simple, non-nameable shapes from three different categories were initially used. All shapes were the same size, 6.85° × 6.85° (visual angle degree), and were shown in black on a white background. A pilot testing was carried out with 40 undergraduate students who were asked to name the shapes if they were able to do so. Each shape was presented for 6 s, and there was a 3-s interval between shapes. Among these 33 shapes, nine that were not named by any of the students were used for visual statistical learning. This procedure enabled the principal investigator to control linguistic mediation and strictly select nonlinguistic stimuli for the project. These are the final nine shapes used for the visual statistical learning test.
