Two groups of 5- to 6-yr.-old children estimated the time required to view 15 color slides containing an assortment of familiar objects. In one group, the pictures appeared in categorical order. A second group viewed the same 15 slides in a random order. The results showed that, although picture-recall was similar for the two groups, children in the category group estimated significantly longer durations than subjects in the random condition. The findings were discussed in the context of Ornstein's 1969 storage size hypothesis.
两组5到6岁的儿童估计观看15张包含各种常见物品的彩色幻灯片所需的时间。在一组中，图片按类别顺序出现。另一组以随机顺序观看相同的15张幻灯片。结果显示，虽然两组的图片回忆情况相似，但分类组的儿童估计的持续时间明显长于随机组的受试者。研究结果在奥恩斯坦1969年的存储容量假设背景下进行了讨论。
