- THE DEVELOPMENT OF OBJECT CATEGORIZATION IN YOUNG CHILDREN: HIERARCHICAL INCLUSIVENESS, AGE, PERCEPTUAL ATTRIBUTE, AND GROUP VERSUS INDIVIDUAL ANALYSES (2010, background): “Is animal superordinate? If so, then what about things (L0, above) and so forth? Furthermore, basic to an expert or a person in one culture may be subordinate to a novice or a person in another culture (Dougherty, 1978; Tanaka & Taylor, 1991).”

- Evolution and Devolution of Knowledge: A Tale of Two Biologies (2004, background): “There is evidence that biological experts have a more specific basic level than novices, but this describes results from a novice perspective (Dougherty 1978; Johnson & Mervis 1997;Tanaka & Taylor 1991).”
- Universality and language specificity in object naming (2003, background): “In the more general literature on categorization, it has been suggested that different populations of people make their primary categorizations at different levels of abstraction, reflecting their level of expertise in the domain (e.g., Berlin, 1992; Dougherty, 1978; Johnson & Mervis, 1997; Rosch et”
