## In authors' words

### Who or what was studied (sample)

n = 346

### How they did it (methods)

Given a dog, check which things it is not. 28 subjects excluded for checking every box.

### What they found (results)

75% correct on the object; subjects endorsed both not-tree and not-burger.

## Commentary

### Response

An other is typically a set, not a single item. Scope limit: the options were supplied as checkboxes — a free-generation replication would strengthen this considerably.
