Mandler, Jean M.; Ritchey, Gary H. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Learning and Memory, 1977
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.…

Potter, Mary C. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Learning and Memory, 1976
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)

Mandler, Jean M.; Parker, Richard E. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Learning and Memory, 1976
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.

Baddeley, A. D.; Patterson, K. E. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Learning and Memory, 1977
Two studies investigated recognition of pictures of faces, focusing on the effects of changes in appearance of the face from presentation to test and type of processing or encoding. (Editor)

Mandler, Jean M.; Johnson, Nancy S. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Learning and Memory, 1976
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)

Nelson, Douglas L.; And Others – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Learning and Memory, 1977
This series of experiments was designed to evaluate a model of picture and word encoding. The primary assumptions are that both sensory and semantic codes can be activated for both pictures and words but the relative order of access to phonemic information is different for the two types of representation.

Nelson, Douglas L.; And Others – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Learning and Memory, 1976
Pictures generally show superior recognition relative to their verbal labels. This experiment was designed to link this pictorial superiority effect to sensory or meaning codes associated with the two types of symbols. (Editor)

Pezdek, Kathy – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Learning and Memory, 1977
This research attempts to determine whether integration of information occurs when the information is presented partly in the verbal modality and partly in the pictorial modality; in other words, does cross-modality integration occur? (Author/RK)

Park, Denise Cortis; Whitten, William B., LLL – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Learning and Memory, 1977
This research examines how pictures differ from sentences on important memory dimensions, with specific reference to Bransford and Franks (1971). (Author/RK)
