  1. Shown are the mean number of errors (the wrong item is named, or an item is skipped), and the number of corrections (the wrong item is named, but the subject immediately corrects himself afterwards). Note: the sample size is somewhat smaller than for the completion times because accuracy was not recorded with some subjects.
