Looked for evidence of an intermediate stage between the second and third stages in multiple seriation during which subjects seriate the material on one dimension and classify it on the other. Fine grained analysis of stages is considered useful in elucidating the mechanisms of progression through a stage sequence. (GO)

Two experiments compared Ss' serial recall of 16 hierarchically formed patterns of ordered digits. (Author)

Research was done to investigate the interfunctional relationships between a child's ability to order a set of objects and the development of language descriptives used to describe differing aspects of a group of objects which had been ordered. Results show that mean age of concrete operation acquisition is 7.1 years. (Author/JB)

The unit-sequence interference hypothesis predicts that sequences of high-frequency words should be forgotten faster than equivalent sequences of low-frequency words, because of opportunities for response competition that increase with word frequency. (Authors)

Study shows that there are differences in the information-processing capacities of touch and vision and that these differences are influenced by a variety of factors. (Author)

Pattern of results is discussed in terms of the conceptualization that imitation required both that the observer (1) has acquired and retained the model's responses and (2) has been placed in circumstances which favor activating this learning into overt performance. (Authors)

Absolute judgment may be characterized as a special case of paired-associate learning in which the stimuli and responses are ordered, and responses are assigned to stimuli in serial order. (Authors)

The similarity match took longer than the identity match, and the difference in latency increased as the number of lines in the pattern increased. (Author)

Purpose of these four experiments was to elucidate the role of grouping in remembering words by using single-trial free recall. (Author/CB)

Study investigates the effects of spatial and temporal grouping on short-term serial recall by elementary school children of three different grade levels. (Authors)

Study is concerned with the commonalities between the development of skill and the development of problem solving. (Authors)

Nonsense syllables and two-arm semaphore" positions were the tasks in this study of experience free learning. (MB)
