In evaluating retrieval rates for category information for a concept, collins and quillian’s semantic network approach would predict the slowest reaction times for which of the following statements using a sentence verification technique? a. a field sparrow is a bird.
b. a field sparrow is a sparrow.
c. a field sparrow is an animal.
d. a field sparrow is a field sparrow.

C. A field sparrow is an animal.

Explanation:

Collins and Quillian in 1969 proposed The Hierarchical Network Model of Semantic Memory, it is a memory for word concept. This model suggest that an idea, word or thing higher the hierarchy will be more easily recalled. A field sparrow is an animal is lower down in the hierarchy than a field sparrow is a bird or a sparrow or a field sparrow.

Field sparrow comes first followed by sparrow, then bird and lastly, animal.

Thus it will take longer to recall a field sparrow is an animal.
