Siegel, Jane A.; Siegel, William – Psychological Review, 1972
Absolute judgment may be characterized as a special case of paired-associate learning in which the stimuli and responses are ordered, and responses are assigned to stimuli in serial order. (Authors)
Descriptors: Comparative Analysis, Memory, Paired Associate Learning, Performance Factors
Derks, Peter L. – Journal of Experimental Psychology, 1972
The similarity match took longer than the identity match, and the difference in latency increased as the number of lines in the pattern increased. (Author)

Starkey, David – Child Development, 1981
Examines the issue of object sorting in early infancy. Forty-eight infants at 6, 9, and 12 months were presented with eight sets of small, manipulable objects. At six months, selective manipulation was absent; at nine months, 94 percent of the infants sequentially touched similar objects and at 12 months 100 percent did so. (Author/DB)

Sanders, Raymond E.; And Others – Journal of Gerontology, 1980
Young adults' rehearsal was serially and categorically organized. Older adults' rehearsal was nonstrategic. Results show that direct strategy measures provide more information about processes underlying age differences in memory than do outcome measures alone. (Author)

Kleinke, David J. – Journal of Educational Research, 1980
Four forms of an achievement test were administered to fourth graders using two item orders and two response locations. While performance differences were noted between sexes in speed tests, handedness was not a significant factor; easy-to-difficult question order produced higher scores. (JD)

Drewnowski, Adam – Journal of Verbal Learning and Verbal Behavior, 1980
The results of three experiments provide evidence that the observed detrimental effects of acoustic similarity on serial recall may be a consequence of poorer memory for the order of consonant sounds as opposed to vowel sounds. (PMJ)

Eiser, Christine – Early Child Development and Care, 1989

Wagenmakers, Eric-Jan; Farrell, Simon; Ratcliff, Roger – Journal of Experimental Psychology: General, 2005
Recently, G. C. Van Orden, J. G. Holden, and M. T. Turvey (2003) proposed to abandon the conventional framework of cognitive psychology in favor of the framework of nonlinear dynamical systems theory. Van Orden et al. presented evidence that "purposive behavior originates in self-organized criticality" (p. 333). Here, the authors show that Van…
