This paper had three aims: 1, to make more widely known two methods of assessing recognition, one based on ranking and the other on rating, 2, to describe three experiments comparing the two methods, and 3, to give a preliminary account of the results of some theoretical calculations. (Author/RK)

Frequency Theory, deriving from word recognition studies, was applied to immediate recognition of nonrepresentational pictorial items by 12-year old Ss. (Author)

Ambiguous pictures that could be seen as faces or as meaningless patterns were the stimuli in two recognition-memory experiments. Recognition was far more accurate when the stimuli were seen as faces. (Editor)

Recognition memory is one of the few areas of cognition in schizophrenia in which deficit has not been found. Such a finding has important theoretical implications for the understanding of schizophrenia. This research presents a study of recognition in long-term episodic memory in schizophrenia in which previous findings of no deficit were…

In this paper, we report a simple experiment demonstrating one form of continuity between recall and recognition. (Author)

Results strongly support a self-terminating, feature-testing, contingent mode of information processing. (Author)

Subjects received recognition, meaning, or truth-value instructions in a Bransford and Franks paradigm. The results of two trials indicated that subjects understood and performed very well under recognition and truth-value instructions when constraints on memory were removed. (Editor/RK)

Four experiments examined the effects of various instructions on the rate of false recognitions of synonyms, antonyms, nonsemantic associates, and homonyms. (Editor)

The recognition by children of pictures, names, and pictures together with names was examined using a sequential memory task. (Editor)

An experiment is reported which directly compared the effects of two procedures, recognition and inference, in assessing children's abilities to predict the viewpoint of others, and demonstrated less egocentrism in a recogniton than in an inference condition. (Editor/RK)

Tulving and Thomas have concluded that nonrecognizable words are recallable and therefore that generation-recognition theory is denied. The primary purpose of this article is to argue that they have not demonstrated recognition failure of recallable words. (Author/RK)

The central focus of the present study was to determine whether subjects retain any information about the specific nature - the specific lexical content - of the individual sentences heard during acquisition. (Author)

This study investigates word-storage structure and processes of organization and retrieval in 17 young schizophrenics and 13 normal subjects. (Editor)

The primary purpose of this research was to determine how imaginal and verbal encoding strategies interact with various stimulus characteristics to either enhance or retard recognition; the secondary purpose of these studies was to test the conceptual coding hypothesis of Ellis, 1972. (Editor)

The list-scanning experiments first described and studied by Sternberg have raised some important and interesting questions about memory function and the close and subtle relationship between memory and attention. This paper presents an attempt to explain these findings. (Author/RK)
