Sequences of seven tones were presented, and recognition memory for individual tones of each sequence was tested under varying degrees of context. (Editor)

Investigates the effects of verbal labels on the short-term retention of a simple motor skill. (Author/RK)

Examines Lerner's work on the justice motive. Central to this view of justice is the notion that people are motivated to eliminate the innocent suffering of others and will do so providing the act of help does not jeopardize the individual's ability to maintain deserved outcomes. (Author/RK)

A field study and a laboratory experiment were conducted to test the hypothesis that the method by which an attitude was formed is a crucial variable affecting attitude-behavior consistency. (Editor)

Discusses methods for observing oscillations in a chemical reaction about a steady state en route to equilibrium. (MLH)

Discusses advantages of radial diffusion assay in determining presence of enzyme and/or rough approximation of amount of enzyme activities. Procedures are included for the preparation of starch-agar plates, and the application and determination of enzyme. Techniques using plant materials (homogenates, tissues, ungerminated embryos, and seedlings)…

Demonstrates that categorization of speech sounds can be influenced by the phonetic structure of connected speech. (Editor/RK)

The central question in these experiments concerns the effect of unattended printed words upon a picture-naming task to determine whether print can be read even when it is not being attended to. (Author/RK)

Discusses two propositions about the preliminary stages of acoustic analysis and encoding in the absence of focal attention. (Editor/RK)

Presents three experiments that explore whether inescapable shock of long duration and moderate intensity (LoShk) produces an avoidance-escape deficit (called an interference effect) by causing animals to learn to respond less actively or by causing them to learn to be "helpless". (Editor)

Several experiments tested the occurrence of the "Kamin effect", i.e., the deficit in performance of an incompletely learned avoidance task, in terms of discrimination (choice) behavior by rats. (Editor/RK)

Repeated, isolated presentations of a stimulus typically reduce the subsequent ability of that cue to become an effective conditioned stimulus. This phenomenon is known as the latent inhibition effect. Four experiments investigate this effect. (Editor/RK)

Memory for serial position was examined in two experiments, while a third study investigated the extent to which such information could be put to use. (Editor)

Investigates simple line drawings as they are represented in memory, attempts to validate a particular methodology which provides evidence about such representations, and proposes a theoretical algorithm that mechanically segments and assigns a psychological representation to a set of simple (nonsense) line drawings.
