A child with a disability is expected to take tests along with his or her non-disabled classmates. The child may receive accommodations or modifications, if needed. Some children may take alternate assessments. Some may take tests that measure progress in alternate standards. Your child must recall facts quickly and correctly to do well on tests.…

The present experiment attempted to magnify the effects of organization by modality by providing Ss with an opportunity to learn how to organize by modality. (Author)

The present experiment uses a variation of the repeti design of Hebb (1961) to ask the question of the fate of individual items in the Brown-Peterson task at a time when, if interference does indeed dissipate, the old items that produce interference should no longer be available to compete with new items. (Author)

in the present dichotic memory research, the addition of either a monaural stimulus suffix on the unattended ear or a binaural suffix was shown to selectively impair unattended-ear performance. (Editor)

The present experiemnt is an attempt to further clarify the relationship between rehearsal and retention. (Author)

This study explored tactile retention by children with attention-demanding and modality-specific distractors. (Author)

The purpose of this experiment was to determine if the verbal system is involved in coding pictorial reresentations when the task requires the acquisition of their relative order. (Author)

The present experiments were designed to obtain further information on the forgetting of verbal items from STS when the interpolated activity is a very attention-demanding nonverbal task. (Author)

Presents a review of various studies on the acquisition, nature, and function of language coding in children's learning. (TO)

Fifth graders were asked to learn 32 syntactically varied semantically unrelated sentences containing combinations of agentive, objective, and instrumental case relations. Results were discussed in terms of ways to store sentences. (ST)

Investigates kindergarteners, and third graders' ability to identify novel and repeated visual stimuli. A continuous recognition memory task technique is used. Examines children's ratings of confidence in their decisions by using standardized photographs of peers expressing varying degrees of certainty. (DP)

Study suggested that a new research orientation be followed, that is, in addition to studying to learn the investigator of memory should start to establish the empirical laws of learning to forget. (Editor/RK)

This study examined those characteristics of a sequence to which children respond when they are presented with partially learnable sequences followed by a series of trials on which all responses are correct. (Author/RK)
