Peer reviewedScarborough, Don L.; And Others – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 1977

Analysis of the response latencies using Sternberg's additive-factors approach indicates that frequency effects consist of both effects in encoding and in retrieval from memory. (Editor/RK)
