Proactive Inhibition in Short-Term Retention of Pictures
Fox, Charles; Yuille, John C. – Journal of Experimental Psychology, 1973
The present study is an attempt to determine whether the build-up and release of PI (Proactive Inhibition) previously reported for verbal STM (Short-Term Memory) can be obtained when visual STM is involved. (Author/RK)

The Influence of Instructional Media in Physiology Practical Teaching on Students' Conceptual Understanding.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Tan, Christine Margaret; And Others – Journal of Educational Television, 1989
Describes study conducted at the University Sains Malaysia with pharmacy students that compared a videotaped demonstration with a conventional laboratory experiment in physiology to determine the short-term and long-term effectiveness of the instructional media. Treatment for the experimental and control groups are described, and results are…

Transitions between Short-Term and Long-Term Memory in Learning Meaningful Unrelated Paired Associates Using Computer Based Drills.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Goldenberg, Tzvika Y.; Turnure, James E. – Computers in Human Behavior, 1989
Discussion of short-term and long-term memory in learning paired associates focuses on two microcomputer-based instructional design experiments with eleventh and twelfth graders that were modeled after traditional drill and practice routines. Research questions are presented, treatment conditions are explained, and additional research is…

Kosslyn, Stephen M.; And Others – 1985
This paper investigates the processes by which visual mental images--the precept-like short-term memory representations--are created from information stored in long-term memory. It also presents a new method for studying image generation. Three experiments were conducted using college students as subjects. In the first experiment, a Podgorny and…

On the Independence of Short-Term Memory and Working Memory in Cognitive Development.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Brainerd, C. J.; Kingma, J. – Cognitive Psychology, 1985
Nine experiments were conducted to test the hypothesis that short-term memory and information processing share a common pool of scarce resources. (LMO)

Comprehension and Text Genre: An Analysis of Secondary School Foreign Language Readers.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Allen, Edward D.; And Others – Modern Language Journal, 1988
More than 1,500 high school foreign language students were tested for comprehension of authentic texts. First- through fifth-year French, German, and Spanish students read texts of the types mentioned in the ACTFL Proficiency Guidelines at the intermediate and intermediate high levels. All students captured some meaning from each of the texts.…

Processing and Memory of Color, Contour, and Pattern Found in Computer Digitized Color Pictures for Elementary Children.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Marschalek, Douglas G. – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 1988
Describes study of children in grades one, three, and five that examined their active processing and short term memory (STM) of color, contour, and interior pattern of shapes found in computer digitized pictures. Age-related differences are examined, and the role of processing visual information in the learning process is discussed. (12…
