Effect of Sentence Size and Network Distance on Retrieval Speed.
Dosher, Barbara Anne
Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, v8 n3 p173-207 May 1982
The accuracy of sentence memory and the retrieval speed are jointly measured using a speed-accuracy trade-off paradigm. Results indicate that speed of retrieval from network representations is remarkably invariant over network size and distance, although increased sentence size results in a slight slowing in retrieval-speed parameters.
