We thank Steven Verheyen for setting up and collecting the data for Study 3 (as part of a related project) and Myrthe Vissers for help in categorizing participants' titles. Furthermore, we would like to thank Professor Jan Landwehr for providing us further information on the analysis code used in his study, and Mayer and Landwehr for providing the open-source R package "imagefluency" to calculate image statistics.
