“…Although these subjective variables are not independent from each other, an increasing body of studies suggest that they theoretically and empirically constitute distinct constructs (e.g., Connell & Lynott, 2012;Dellantonio, Mullatti, Pastore, & Job, 2014;Kousta et al, 2011). For example, although imageability is highly correlated with concreteness (.83 in Paivio's work and around that value in subsequent studies-e.g., Altarriba et al, 1999;Connell & Lynott, 2012;Gilhooly & Logie, 1980;Toglia & Battig, 1978), which has supported the interchangeable use of both measures in experimental research (see, e.g., Fliessbach, Weis, Klaver, Elger, & Weber, 2006), a growing body of evidence has suggested that imageability and concreteness capture different word properties (e.g., Connell & Lynott, 2012;Dellantonio et al, 2014;Kousta et al, 2011).…”
