Nelson, Douglas L.; And Others – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Learning and Memory, 1975
Three experiments addressed the problem of isolating the effects of sensory similarity on subprocesses involved in coding paired associates. (Editor)

Nelson, Douglas L.; Reed, Valerie S. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Learning and Memory, 1976
Pictures of common objects apparently function as effective memory representations without evoking their corresponding name codes. The first three experiments of this report were designed to explore the limits of the independence of the naming process by varying relationships between the labels for the pictures and their responses.

Nelson, Douglas L.; And Others – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Learning and Memory, 1976
Research has indicated that interference produced by the sharing of sensory features of paired-associate stimulus words was not eliminated by processing the pairs at the meaning level. These experiments were intended to extend the range of conditions under which the sensory interference effect might persist, and to incorporate the findings within…

Nelson, Douglas L.; And Others – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Learning and Memory, 1977
This series of experiments was designed to evaluate a model of picture and word encoding. The primary assumptions are that both sensory and semantic codes can be activated for both pictures and words but the relative order of access to phonemic information is different for the two types of representation.

This experiment was designed to investigate retroactive inhibition in free recall of categorized work lists with categories defined as sets of rhymes. (Editor)

Nelson, Douglas L.; And Others – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Learning and Memory, 1976
Pictures generally show superior recognition relative to their verbal labels. This experiment was designed to link this pictorial superiority effect to sensory or meaning codes associated with the two types of symbols. (Editor)
