Glanzer, Murray; Koppenaal, Lois – Journal of Verbal Learning and Verbal Behavior, 1977
The effect of a classification, or encoding, task on intentional free recall was examined. Examination of the serial position curves for immediate and free recall shows clear effects assigned to long-term store. Consideration of effects regarding levels of processing gives a parallel account differing only in terminology and emphasis. (CHK)

Gellatly, A. R. H.; Gregg, V. H. – Journal of Verbal Learning and Verbal Behavior, 1977

A reanalysis of the data favors instead a model emphasizing the role of decision-making processes in categorization and flexibility of task strategies. (CHK)
