TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reported that subjects allowed to choose their number of categories showed a category-recall function of less magnitude than has been reported with self-paced tasks.
Abstract: With experimentally paced presentation, subjects allowed to choose their number of categories showed a category-recall function of less magnitude than has been reported with self-paced tasks, and subjects assigned their number of categories showed little evidence of the function. Individual differences in categorization accounted for some of the variance, but individual differences in recall ability accounted for more.
