Study concerned with the effects of procedural differences on the classification of geometrical stimuli. (Author)

Results of three experiments affirm prior research concerned with the distinction between associative and encoding factors in free recall. (Author/MB)

The specific issue considered is the age at which children first show evidence of spontaneous category clustering in their free-recall.…
