The relationships between 10 behavioral descriptions and 10 Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI) scale names were judged by 28 naive and 26 experienced student subjects. Both groups of judges produced large amounts of illusory correlation, with the experienced judges producing more. Estimates of strength of semantic association between the behavioral descriptions and scale names provided by 45 naive and 18 experienced male and female subjects tended to support the notion that semantic association is an important factor in producing illusory correlations, but there were some interesting exceptions to this tendency. The testing model was discussed as an analogue to the clinical situation.
28名无经验的学生受试者和26名有经验的学生受试者对10种行为描述与10种明尼苏达多相人格调查表（MMPI）量表名称之间的关系进行了判断。两组评判者都产生了大量的错觉相关，其中有经验的评判者产生的更多。45名无经验的和18名有经验的男性及女性受试者对行为描述与量表名称之间语义关联强度的估计，倾向于支持语义关联是产生错觉相关的一个重要因素这一观点，但这种倾向也存在一些有趣的例外情况。讨论了测试模型作为临床情况的一种类比。
