Naming times for the Snodgrass and Vanderwart pictures in Spanish

We present new Spanish norms for abject familiarity and rated age of acquis ition for 140 pictures taken horn Snodgrass and Vanderwart (1980), together with data on visual complexity, image agreement, name agreement, word leng th (in syllables and phonemes), and five measures of word frequency. The pi ctures were presented to a group of 64 Spanish subjects, and oral naming la tencies were recorded. In a multiple regression analysis, age of acquisitio n, object familiarity, name agreement, ward frequency, and word length made significant independent contributions to predicting naming latency.
