Motor and verbal reaction times to words and drawings

Verbal reaction time to drawings is always a little longer than verbal reaction time to words. In previous experiments this finding had been interpreted in terms of the greater uncertainty when naming a drawing than when reading a word. In the present experiment, it is shown that the discriminability of the two categories of stimuli cannot explain the differences in VRT since the motor reaction time and the recognition threshold are a little higher for words than for drawings.
