Attempts to apply a chronometric analysis to the tendency of the visual modality to dominate conscious judgments about the presence and location of objects. (Author/RK)

This article provides a feel for the "real world" of interactive computing systems and it offers a description of the enormous flexibility of the MISOE data files. (Author/RK)

Three experiments are reported that were designed to delineate the properties of the stimulus encoding stage in reaction time tasks of varying stimulus-response compatibility. (Editor)

This paper is concerned with the role of redundancy in two important communication settings. Experiments 1 and 2 explored the effects of redundancy in a decoding task, where the respondent's goal is to identify the referent implied by a pair of descriptive messages. Experiment 3 assessed the extent to which people choose redundant messages when…

Effectiveness in collective negotiations depends significantly on how well administrators can communicate the issues under discussion to their management team. SB 160, a newly-defined negotiations process is forcing administrators to focus more sharply on middle management. A new component in management, the Management Alternates Team, was…

Article stipulated basic distinctions and definitions that provided a necessary and sufficient background for an overall understanding of the structure of MISOE information systems. (Author/RK)

Looks at an alternative method to linear notes for organizing thoughts when preparing a talk or paper. This method displays the manner in which the relationships of a subject are organized and offers a format for displaying complex inter-dependencies in place of linear notes. (Author/MER)

Two different experimental procedures were used to examine (a) information-processing differences between two groups of subjects (Cs versus Vs) identified by the form of their conditioned eyeblinks; (b) information-processing differences between the right and left cerebral hemispheres; and (c) parallels between hypothesized C-V differences and…

Describes uses of the computer in the development of a laboratory to assist in music learning. (Editor/RK)

Discusses a reliability theoretic construct focusing on information produced to satisfy specified purposes or achieve preconceived objectives. When measures of system reliability and sensitivity analyses are performed, the result is a closer congruence between the objectives of the data producer and user requirements. (Author/MBR)

Proposes that a levels-of-processing analysis of encoding implies that (a) other things being equal, (e.g., task requirements), deeper information should be equally derivable from pictures and words; but (b) when picture-word differences do occur, they are encoding phenomena which result because task requirements generally favor more discriminable…

Article attempted to show that new findings are emerging that may bring the study of probability learning closer to the mainstream of research on human memory and information processing. (Author/RK)

Among the purposes of this chapter is the provision of a description of the sample and research design of the MISOE sample data systems, including a specification of the size of the sample. (Author/RK)

Article considered three fields in which cognitive psychology was related to education and defined the meaning and purpose of cognitive psychology. (Author/RK)
