I'm conducting experimentations. Respond however you see fit.

Of the 2 shapes, one is called booba and one is called kiki. Which is which?
>>
>>27150109
Obviously the one on the right is called booba, and the one on the left kiki
>>
Left is kiki, right is booba. Kiki is a sharp word so i associate it with the sharp shape. Booba is a softer word with no hard sounds, so its goes with the less angular shape
>>
Shape b is booba.
Kiki is cooler, but I would hug booba
>>
You are all correct. This phenomenon is present in 95-98% of respondents. It exists cross culturally, and in children too young to read. Suggesting that the names we give to things aren't arbitrary.

Especially interesting is that you don't find the phenomenon in autistic individuals:

I'm guessing the one on the left is Booba because of the way you labeled the file name
