Deconfounding Serial Recall: Response Timing and the Overarching Role of Grouping
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Cowan, Nelson; Elliott, Emily M. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2023
We used the timing of serial recall in several situations to reveal important aspects of recall groupings that participants construct and the reasons those groupings occur. We examined the timing of responses in the recall of digit strings within two published experiments. Cowan, Saults, Elliott, and Moreno (2002) examined memory for nine-item…

Using the Distractor Categories of Multiple-Choice Items to Improve IRT Linking
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Kim, Jee-Seon – Journal of Educational Measurement, 2006
Simulation and real data studies are used to investigate the value of modeling multiple-choice distractors on item response theory linking. Using the characteristic curve linking procedure for Bock's (1972) nominal response model presented by Kim and Hanson (2002), all-category linking (i.e., a linking based on all category characteristic curves…

Free Recall of Grouped Words
Gianutsos, Rosamond – Journal of Experimental Psychology, 1972
Purpose of these four experiments was to elucidate the role of grouping in remembering words by using single-trial free recall. (Author/CB)

Age Differences in Free Recall Rehearsal Strategies.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Sanders, Raymond E.; And Others – Journal of Gerontology, 1980
Young adults' rehearsal was serially and categorically organized. Older adults' rehearsal was nonstrategic. Results show that direct strategy measures provide more information about processes underlying age differences in memory than do outcome measures alone. (Author)

Probing for the Functional Stimuli in Serial Learning
Posnansky, Carla J. – Journal of Experimental Psychology, 1972
A primary purpose of the present study was the evaluation of possible differences in process between the recall and anticipation methods of serial learning. (Author)

Investigating the Validity of Holland's (1959, 1997) RIASEC Typology among Native Hawaiians
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Oliver, Kristin E.; Waehler, Charles A. – Journal of Counseling Psychology, 2005
The present study extends the literature base that is answering the call to examine the validity of J. L. Holland's (1959, 1997) 6 types of themes (realistic [R], investigative [I], artistic [A], social [S], enterprising [E], and conventional [C]) in his typology when applied to populations that are culturally different from the populations with…

Individual Differences in Cognition: Relationship between Verbal Ability and Memory for Order.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Schwartz, Steven; Wiedel, Timothy C. – Intelligence, 1978
The relation between individual differences in verbal ability and memory for order was investigated. Results indicated that (1) order and item information may be retained separately; (2) verbal ability is related to short-term recall but not recognition of order; and (3) transformation of order at output increases the relation.
