Loaiza, Vanessa M.; Halse, Sindre C. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2019
Previous work regarding a counterintuitive benefit of increasing distractors on episodic long-term memory (LTM) has suggested that retrieval of memoranda in working memory (WM) after attention has been distracted may confer benefits to episodic LTM. The current study investigated 2 conceptions of how this may occur: either as an attentional…

Baddeley, Alan D.; Hitch, Graham J.; Quinlan, Philip T. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2018
Immediate serial recall of verbal material is highly sensitive to impairment attributable to phonological similarity. Although this has traditionally been interpreted as a within-sequence similarity effect, Engle (2007) proposed an interpretation based on interference from prior sequences, a phenomenon analogous to that found in the Peterson…

Spurgeon, Jessica; Ward, Geoff; Matthews, William J. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2014
We examined the contribution of the phonological loop to immediate free recall (IFR) and immediate serial recall (ISR) of lists of between one and 15 words. Following Baddeley (1986, 2000, 2007, 2012), we assumed that visual words could be recoded into the phonological store when presented silently but that recoding would be prevented by…
