Five-year-olds, 9-year-olds, and adults were compared in a successive tachistoscopic recognition task in which size of the first array and the interval between the first array and the second single recognition-test stimulus were varied. (Author/SB)

Paper presented in part at the American Psychological Association meeting (Washington, D.C., September 1967), and supported by U.S. Public Health Service Grant MH-10982-01.

This study assessed the recognition by conserving and nonconserving first graders, of true and false permise and inference sentences following story presentations. Conservers performed slightly better than nonconservers on sentences other than true inference sentences, thus indicating that concrete mental operations are related to the process of…

In this study, third and sixth graders were tested in a recognition memory task with short lists of items from either one or two categories to investigate the influence of categorical information on retrieval processes. (Author/SB)

This study explored the extent and accuracy of the subject's knowledge of his previous recall performance as a function of response mode and response-produced feedback. In free recall trials, subjects responded orally, in writing, or in both oral and written modes. Accuracy of later recall or responses was measured. (CHK)

Determines the relation between recallability and recognizability in experiments presenting a study list, then giving a recall test for some items followed by a recognition test for all items. The results suggested that the set of recallable items were substantially, if not wholly, included within the set of recognizable items. (Author/EJS)

This study examined (1) whether subjects of different ages tend to rely on different kinds of visual information when given a choice; and (2) whether the ability to use spatial and identity information accurately in a recognition task changes developmentally. (Author/SB)

The Bransford and Franks paradigm of linguistic abstraction was used to examine age differences in the nature of stored semantic information. (Author/SB)

Explores the extent and accuracy of the subject's knowledge concerning his previous memory performance. (Author/RM)

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

Results are reported which show that the facilitating effect of recall on recognition is quite substantial. (AM)

This summary of research performed during the past five and one-half years and dealing with different attributes in memory functioning is organized around four attributes of memory: "Frequency Attribute: Verbal Discrimination" explores the development of the theory dealing with verbal discrimination tasks and lists several papers prepared during…

The usefulness of the method of memory judgments as a tool for studying human memory was explored in this research. The first experiments involved the nature of the information about when an event occurred, the spacing of repetitions of an event, and presentation modality of an event. Results suggested that time and spacing are represented in…

This study examined children's use of category information as a discrimination cue to avoid intrusions in recall and false alarms in recognition of items outside given categories. Forty-eight children in grades 1 and 4 were administered one of three conditions of a recognition task in which all study words were members of one of two familiar…
