Categorical Perception

Installation instructions

This first version should work in any java-enabled browser. Click on a flag to try the experiment. Due to the way sounds are played in this version, there may be short interruptions in the sounds under certain circumstances.

We have also created a newer version of the test which requires the Java 2 Runtime Environment and Java Media Framework. This version is a Java application and cannot be run in a browser.

Go to the KatPer directory on the CD and type: java KatPer
at your UNIX or DOS prompt. Please verify that your java executable is in your path and that the current directory is in your CLASSPATH. (Note also that java is case sensitive, so type KatPer and not katper.)
