Subjects responded to pairs of test items from learned linear orderings (e.g., Tom is taller than Dick; Dick is taller than Sam, etc.). Results are compared with previous studies of ordered linguistic, perceptual, and numerical information. (Editor/RK)

The concept of a scene schema was used to predict the kinds of information that will be remembered from complex pictures over relatively long periods of time. Recognition of eight types of transformations on both organized and unorganized pictures was tested either immediately following presentation or at intervals of a day, a week, or 4 months.…

Three experiments were conducted to investigate whether semantic information presented to the unattended ear in a dichotic listening experiment has a memory effect after 30 seconds. (Editor)

Three converging procedures were used to determine whether pictures presented in a rapid sequence at rates comparable to eye fixations are understood and then quickly forgotten. (Editor)

The present research represents an initial attempt to compare the results obtained using artificial information with results obtained in a typical semantic memory experiment. (Editor)

The purpose of the present experiment was to explore what it is that people remember about complex pictures. The experiment investigated several types of information which people might remember about two kinds of pictures, those which represent real-world scenes and those which represent collections of objects. (Author/RK)

Sequences of seven tones were presented, and recognition memory for individual tones of each sequence was tested under varying degrees of context. (Editor)

The effects of real-world schemata on recognition of complex pictures were studied. Two kinds of pictures were used: pictures of objects forming real-world scenes and unorganized collections of the same objects. (Editor)

The Peterson and Peterson short-term memory paradigm (1959) involves an interpolated task with several potential dimensions from which interference may originate: similarity of items and vocalization. This research assesses the relative interference potency of each on material presented either aurally or visually. (Editor/RK)

An information processing model, Memory-Aided Pattern Perceiver (MAPP), that simulates the recall of briefly presented chess positions, was subjected to a test of its assumption that such positions are encoded and stored as chunks in short-term memory. (Editor)

Tulving and others (Tulving, 1974; Tulving & Madigan, 1970) have distinguished two kinds of forgetting of verbal information: trace-dependent forgetting and cue-dependent forgetting. Attempts to determine which type occurs in retroactive inhibition of free-recall learning. (Author/RK)

A free-recall procedure demonstrated state-dependent learning using alcohol. Information encoded and stored while intoxicated was more effectively retrieved when later tests of recall were performed while intoxicated, as compared to recall accomplished in the sober state. (Editor/RK)
