The present experiment was designed to distinquish between verbal and nonverbal encoding of sequentially presented spatial information. (Author)

The purpose of the present experiment was to examine questions on information specification raised by P. R. Laughlin. Ss were asked to solve one attribute-identification problem, using the selection paradigm. (Author/RK)

Thirty-six newborn infants were exposed to a visual stimulus until habituation was demonstrated; subjects were then presented with the same target or one of either moderate or large discrepancy from the standard stimulus. Following habituation, female infants displayed greater recovery of attention to moderate stimulus change. (SDH)

Six experiments investigated loss of availability of surface form in sentence comprehension. Explanations for the loss included: (1) linguistic hypothesis; (2) memory limitations hypothesis; (3) integration hypothesis; and (4) processing shift hypothesis. (LMO)

The general purpose of the present experiment was to investigate sources of the effect of pattern goodness on human performance. (Author)

The present experiment was designed to evaluate the effects of type of similarity during a matching process for visually presented stimuli with obvious auditory properties (letters of the alphabet). (Author)

The results of the experiments reported here are in support of the hypothesis that visual and aural presentation lead to different forms of storage and/or retrieval. They are not consistent with models of human memory in which short-term storage is restricted exclusively to an auditory-verbal-linguistic process. (Author)

The present research is concerned with an analysis of the relationship between stimulus learning and retention on the one hand, and concept learning on the other. (Author)
