(Rotations-Apparat für Gedächnisstudien nach
Müller)
Description: This apparatus was used for the presentation of
syllables at various rates. (The illustration erroneously shows a
word-pair, a type of stimulus that was not used by Müller
with this apparatus.) While Müller and his colleagues
(Schumann, etc.) originated many types of apparatus, this appears
to be the only one which is available, possibly because Baltzar
(Zimmermann's predecessor) made the original apparatus. (Expanded
