The purpose of the present study was to clarify the effects of the complexity of the Chinese letter on learning to read it. It was hypothesized that the Chinese letter is basically composed by attaching the meanings to special physical pattern. Characteristics of the pattern was defined by the physical complexity. And the complexity (C) was measured by simply counting the numbers of the parts (isolated lines, segments and dots) of the letter, regardfess of it's meanings. First, in order to get some indication of validity of the measure, the relationships between the C and use frequency of the Chinese letter were invest baated. We got, as we expected, a linear relationship between the C and the logarithm of the order of the frequency, and the lower the frequency of the usage, the greater the C of the letter. Second, paired-associate learning between the nonsense physical pattern composed randomly with lines and meaningful word was conducted. The stimuli were 12 physical patterns that were divided into six different C Ievels, and two irregularity (IR) levels.
