A comparison was made of short- and long-term visual and auditory memory in relation to visual and auditory interference. The questions investigated were: (1) will interference be greater when it occurs in the same modality (auditory or visual) in which it was learned (i.e., similarity hypothesis), or (2) will interference be greater when it…

Heyman, Marjorie Rowe – 1970
Training in word recognition based on a child's dominant sensory modality (visual, auditory, or kinesthetic) was compared with training based on nondominant modality. Twenty-five first-grade children with no prior instruction in reading were given visual, auditory, and kinesthetic modalities tests and a pretest of recognition of the words used in…

Wolf, Willavene; And Others – 1970
An analysis of the types of eye movements of subjects viewing motion picture films and telelessons revealed a continuum of movements. Two of the intervals of this continuum (No Observable Movements and Minimovements) were found to be related to intelligence. The factors of age and learning did not correlate with any of the indices. Subjects in the…
