Shanteau, James – Journal of Experimental Psychology, 1974
The purpose of this study is to apply an information-processing approach to risky decision judgments using the theory of information integration (Anderson, 1974; Anderson & Shanteau, 1970). (Author)

Geiselman, Ralph E.; Bellezza, Francis S. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Learning and Memory, 1977
Rates of overt rehearsal and eye movement were compared to each other, and were also compared as predictors of immediate and delayed recall. Concludes that total looking time was the best predictor of long-term retention and that recall performance following overt rehearsal was different from recall performance following silent study.

Bird, Charles P. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Learning and Memory, 1976
Three experiments were conducted in an attempt to develop an account of information loss based on the relationships among events occurring at input, during a retention interval, and at output. (Editor)

Banks, William P.; And Others – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 1976
When shown a pair of digits and asked to select the larger of the two, subjects make their choice more quickly as the numerical difference between the digits increases. Presents and tests a semantic coding model that can explain this and all previous results. (Editor)

Tweney, Ryan D.; Swart, Dan – American Journal of Psychology, 1977
In a study of the effects of instructions on reaction times to judgments of the truth or falsity of sentences, 40 undergraduates were provided computer-assisted instruction by either the "true" or "conversion" model and required to judge 64 sentences of all possible combinations of true or false, affirmative or negative, and expletive or…

Henderson, Sheila A. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 1977
Three experiments examined the role of various sources of feedback in the development and maintenance of a complex ballistic skill, dart throwing, using extended practice. (Editor)

Proctor, Robert W.; Fisicaro, Sebastiano A. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 1977
In recent years several models of human-information processing have been proposed in which the central component is a limited-capacity processing system. One line of research has focused on the question of which stages in the processing sequence require capacity in this system. This research is concerned with time and capacity demands in…

Fischhoff, Baruch – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 1977
There are many tasks in which people are called on to disregard information that they have already processed. Dealing with inadmissible evidence in a courtroom setting, second-guessing the past, etc. This research investigates such difficulties in a general form, using almanac-type questions. (Editor/RK)

Runcie, Dennis; And Others – American Journal of Psychology, 1976
Attempts a more direct, functional analysis of associative processing than is possible within the traditional two-stage transfer paradigm. (Author/RK)

Grice, G. Robert – Journal of Experimental Psychology: General, 1977
This research on eyelid conditioning was designed to evaluate the contributions of sensory, associative, and criterion effects with variations in the interstimulus interval. (Editor/RK)

Shiffrin, Richard M.; Schneider, Walter – Psychological Review, 1977
The two-process theory of detection, search, and attention presented by Schneider and Shiffrin (1977) is tested and extended in a series of experiments. The studies demonstrate the qualitative difference between two modes of information processing: automatic detection and controlled search. A general framework for human information processing is…

Squires, Nancy K.; And Others – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 1977
Three experiments were conducted to evaluate the P300 component of the human evoked response as an index of bisensory information processing. Data shows that the P300 promises to be a valuable tool for assessing brain processes during complex decision making. (Editor/RK)

Wyer, Robert S., Jr.; And Others – Journal of Experimental Social Psychology, 1977
Clarifies several ambiguities concerning the manner in which persons combine behavioral information and information about others' opinions to infer the beliefs held by themselves and others. (Author/RK)

Pastore, R. E.; And Others – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 1976
In 1974 Wood proposed a hybrid serial-parallel model to account for the within-stimulus interactions between the acoustic cue of "pitch" and the phonetic cue of "place". These experiments found Wood's research independent of his subjects' experience, the order of cue presentation, and whether the cues are presented simultaneously or sequentially.…

Bourne, Lyle E., Jr.; And Others – Journal of Clinical Psychology, 1977
While it is clear that schizophrenic patients often exhibit disordered thinking, the specific nature of the deficit and its role, either as a basis of abnormal behavior or as a symptom of malfunction in some underlying control process, remain to be clarified by research and by theory. Describes two experiments on the performance of conceptual…
