This paper describes some of the more spectacular range effects reported in the literature. (Author)

A probe-recognition short-term memory paradigm was used to inquire into the precise effects of sleep deprivation on human memory. (Editor)

The present study investigated further the effects of semantic category on speed of matching a target word to words in a memory set. (Author)

The purpose of the present study was to investigate interference in pigeon short-term memory using an intertrial interference paradigm. (Author)

The present study suggested that simple nameable pictures and individual words both involve the use of verbal processes in retention, and to about the same extent. (Author/RK)

Visual memory in monkeys was examined under four different conditions, each with a separate group. (Editor)

To show how a subject's memory of previous responses and their outcomes affects responding, as in Buchwald's cognitive model, the subject in the present study had to recall his previous response and its outcome before choosing the correct response. (Editor/RK)

The general purpose of this experiment was to determine whether differences in stimulus discrimination, as determined by the MIR (missing-item recognition) test, are correlated with interference in recall, as demanded by the discriminative coding hypothesis. (Author/RK)

Two experiments tracked the acquisition of skilled reading as college students read as many as 160 pages of geometrically inverted text and assessed the consequence for memory of skill at reading. Results were interpreted in terms that emphasized an operational basis to memory--pattern-analyzing procedures rather than conscious contents.…

The results of this experiment suggest that requiring subjects to simultaneously suppress subvocalization and remember syllables depresses performance slightly, but encoding of speech sounds in short-term memory occurs independently of subvocal activity during the memory task. (Editor/RK)

Blocked presentation of categorical material has been found to increase the number of items recalled by retarded subjects. Three experiments are reported, aimed at discovering the reasons for this facilitation. (Editor)

The question under investigation in the present paper is whether subjects can effectively use retention interval information under demanding acquisition and retention conditions, specifically, to evaluate the contribution of retention interval information to memory performance when temporal information is made explicitly available. (Author/RK)

This research has three purposes: 1) to determine whether subjects instructed to study silently in a free-recall experiment engage in associative encoding, 2) to test the validity of associative ability as an individual difference variable, 3) to test for an interaction between presentation rate and associative reaction time. (Editor/RK)

Three experiments were performed using a recognition probe procedure to test the subject's recognition of the order of two items from a dichotically presented list. (Editor)

Memory trigrams were presented by one of three methods: visual-concurrent (all three letters appeared simultaneously), visual-successive, and auditory-successive. (Editor)
