Memory trigrams were presented by one of three methods: visual-concurrent (all three letters appeared simultaneously), visual-successive, and auditory-successive. (Editor)

This experiment investigated whether suppressing correlated vowel phonemes of consonants by pairing each consonant with a redundant vowel /a/ would have the same effect on recall in two input modes - auditory and articulatory. (Editor/RK)

The basic hypothesis of these experiments was that the processing strategy for the transfer of alphabetic material from iconic storage to short-term memory involves a sequential left-to-right factor that develops with increases in experience with reading. (Author)

Two experiments compared concrete nouns and numbers as retrieval cues for paired associates across three recall tests with Ss given instructions to form unbiased mnemonics, mnemonics biased toward the noun, mnemonics biased toward the number, or control instructions. (Editor)

Several computer simulation models of memory represent human knowledge in terms of labeled networks of interconnected ideas. This article attempted to learn in such models how these networks are searched to retrieve relevant information. (Author/RK)

Tulving's encoding specificity principle was examined in two experiments. The main comparison concerned the relationship between the retrieval cue or recognition context and input cue. (Editor)

A delayed matching-to-sample (DMTS) task was used to test several hypotheses about sources of retroactive inhibition (RI) in pigeon short-term memory. (Editor)

The present study, by requiring subjects to decide whether the two words in a stimulus pair have the same or different meanings, is an attempt to measure the time necessary to encode a printed word into a representation of its meaning which is available for subsequent matching. (Author)

In the present study each subject's rehearsal strategy was monitored by recording his eye movements as he studied a series of lists of eight simultaneously presented words. (Author/RK)

The author attempts to obtain some new evidence on simple addition processes in adults in order to evaluate the two additon models offered by Groen and Parkman (1972); a simple counting model and a more complex retrieval model, involving direct access and counting. (Author/RK)

Compared five distinct classes of models of how people judge the relative sizes of named objects. Four basic experiments were all concerned with the amount of time necessary to decide which of two named things is larger. (Editor/RK)

Examines the latency of associative activation in memory by varying the stimulus onset asynchrony (SOA) between a prime word and a test word, thereby establishing the minimum SOA needed to produce a significant associative priming effect on lexical decision times. (Author/RK)

Grant and Roberts found that houselight presented throughout the delay period on a delayed matching-to-sample task caused pigeons to demonstrate a much lower level of accuracy than was found when the delay was spent in darkness. A series of experiments was carried out to examine possible mechanisms responsible for this light-induced retroactive…

Argues for the importance of combining the concerns of the functionalist (Dewey, 1910) approach to memory with investigations of the effects of context and task demands. Two experiments are reported that demonstrate interactions between task demands and the more traditional functionalist variables. Particularly demonstrates that the effects of…

Three experiments were designed to clarify the perplexing ability of subjects to discriminate between to-be-remembered (T BR) and to-be-forgotten (TBF) items in memory. Results implicate within-list retrieval of TBR items as a potent tagging or strengthening operation that provides a basis on which those items may later be discriminated from TBF…
