Cue Redundancy: Some Overlooked Analytical Relationships in MCPL.

Two characteristics of MCPL research efforts relating to the manipulation of cue redundancy are noted. First, the fairly prevalent problem of experimental confounding of cue redundancy with other task parameters, and second, the lack of an analytical development of the mathematical relationships among cue validities, task predictability, and regression weights as cue redundancy is varied systematically. This paper provides such an analysis, and shows that some of the confounding experienced by earlier researchers may be obviated. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
