The primary purpose of this study is to report the functional relation between recognition memory and degree of semantic contextual change and secondarily, to point out that the obtained relation can be described in terms of alternative theoretical approaches. (Author)

Primary purpose of the present research was to test the reasoning that any procedure that interferes with the naming of the test stimuli, while leaving visual complexity unaffected, ought to increase the detrimental effects on reaction time and accuracy produced by changing case. (Authors/CB)

Study investigated the nature of the information that is available to Ss when they have comprehended linguistic materials. (Authors)

This paper suggests that although there is reasonable evidence to support that portion of the Collins-Quillian theory of semantic memory which hypothesizes that words are ordered hierarchically in memory, there is little evidence in support of their hypothesis of cognitive economy of storage in memory. (Author)

Frequency Theory, deriving from word recognition studies, was applied to immediate recognition of nonrepresentational pictorial items by 12-year old Ss. (Author)

It was concluded that the retrieval of information from immediate memory is dependent upon the degree of rehearsal of presented information. (Author)

Dichotic presentation involves the auditory presentation of different verbal messages simultaneously. Investigations involving repetition effects on this process are discussed. (Author/RY)

Major implications of the results of this study are (a) their support for the reality or validity" of measured units of subjective organization, and (b) the effects on practice. (Author/RY)

The Sperling 1960 procedure of full and partial report was used with tachistoscopically presented arrays of 100-msec. duration in two separate experiments. (Editor)

Results of this experiment show a considerable release from proactive inhibition with a shift from words to pictures or pictures to words, thus adding one more change to the considerable number of category changes which produce the release phenomenon. (Author/CB)

Results of these experiments are evaluated in conjunction with the hypothesis that frequency information is a dominant attribute in recognition decisions. (Author/MB)

The usual finding of superior recognition memory for rare items was observed. (Authors)

A factorial experiment which combined solution-word frequency, pre-problem-solving tasks, and S's spelling ability. (Author)

The present experiemnt is an attempt to further clarify the relationship between rehearsal and retention. (Author)
