The claim by Bandura that the Rorschach space response is an artifact of longer blot exposure is questioned because of failure to account for the relationship between productivity and space response rates. Results of this study indicate that no significant temporal effect operates on space response rate. (Author/BEF)

The relationship between time estimation and hyperactivity was studied with 135 normal, 6 hyperactive, and 6 mentally retarded boys (ages 7 to 17 years). It was found that only the retarded Ss showed significant differences between elapsed and estimated times, suggesting that time estimation is not clinically useful for identifying hyperactive…

Advances a complexity account that suggests that there are increased processing-capacity and temporal demands associated with formulating and maintaining more complex message representations. Reports on four studies of this complexity account. Suggests that results of these studies provide considerable support for the complexity hypothesis. (RS)

Maintains that rhetoric is about the place of human action in the temporal continuum. Identifies critical elements of temporal organization for rhetorical scholars and investigates their potential as argument structures. Introduces a time-vocabulary model as a powerful and pragmatic tool for locating intratextual patterns of temporality. (SR)

Discusses such errors in transcribing real time in spoken discourse as inconsistent use of transcriptional conventions; use of transcriptional symbols with multiple meanings; measurement problems; some cross-purposes of real-time transcription; neglect of time between onset and offset of speech and silence transcription; and transcriptions that…
