Résumé
Similarity is a central component of many cognitive processes . Current research suggests that similarity
is well characterized as a comparison of structured representations . This process yields commonalities,
differences related to the commonalities (alignable differences), and differences not related
to the commonalities (nonalignable differences) . In the first study, further evidence for this tripartite
distinction is provided in a commonality and difference listing study involving pairs of pictures . This
study indicates that alignable differences rather than nonalignable differences are central to the comparison
process by virtue of their connection to the commonalities . The second study further demonstrates
that alignable differences count more against the similarity of a pair than do nonalignable differences
. We end by discussing implications of the distinction between alignable and nonalignable
differences for other cognitive processes involving comparisons .
