Foley, Wayne Edward; Lippman, Louis G. – J Exp Child Psychol, 1970
Neither adults' nor children's performances on a reconstruction task was affected by spatial variation, but children's performance was influenced by variation in the temporal sequence of stimulus presentation. This article is based upon an M.A. thesis by the first author under supervision of the second author. A version of this paper was presented…

Gan, Jennifer; Tymchuk, Alexander J. – 1980
This study examined the effect of presentation rate on accuracy of digit serial recall and on serial position curves of digit strings of different lengths with 18 boys classified as reading retarded and a comparison group of children (ages for both groups averaged 11 years) who read at grade level. The results indicated that normal children…

Froehlich, Alyson L.; Herbranson, Walter T.; Loper, Julia D.; Wood, David M.; Shimp, Charles P. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: General, 2004
Pigeons responded in a serial response time task patterned after that of M. J. Nissen and P. Bullemer (1987) with humans. Experiment 1 produced global facilitation: Response times in repeating lists of locations were faster than when locations were random. Response time to a spatial location was also a function of both that location's 1st- and…

Underwood, Benton J.; Malmi, Robert A. – 1977
Several different issues in the temporal coding of words were subjected to experimental analysis. Two experiments evaluated three response measures (recency judgments, position judgments, lag judgments) used to index temporal coding. Lag judgments were found to be of little use; subjects could make valid position and recency judgments without…

Kozma, Robert B. – 1974
The sequences of learning sets (intersequence) and instructional events (intrasequence) were empirically validated for a hierarchy of concept and rule using skills. Experiments with high school students showed no differences between empirical and reordered inter- or intrasequence on time to mastery; nor was there a difference in the number of…
