Encoding processes were investigated using the release from proactive inhibition (PI) paradigm with word triades derived from the factorial Manipulation of evaluative connotation (E) and concreteness (C). (Editor)

In the present study, a single -trial learn-recall design was employed to eliminate the possibility of interference and to provide a clean test of the trace decay theory, which predicts forgetting under impoverished feedback and interpolated noninterfering activity because of covert-rehersal restrictions.

An experiment was conducted comparing judgment of recency (JOR) for line drawings and printed words representing common objects. In a mixed design, groups of 15 Ss were tested using either pictures or words at either of two presentation rates. (Editor)

Confirms studies which have shown that rehearsal enhances recall if appropriate cues are related to the materials. (RB)

Free recall of an array of pictures followed by sequential location recall was observed in children ages 4 to 12. Presentation conditions included arrays of pictures differing in salience of categories versus noncategorical array, and two task conditions, overt labeling versus pointing. Grouping effects on memory were systematically related to…

This study reports the results of a factor analysis that prepared the way for the utilization of MSCA, which is designed to measure the developmental level of children aged 2 1/2 to 8 1/2 in a variety of areas. (Author/RK)

Article is concerned with reporting an experiment which adds to the corpus of information respecting dual codes in short-term memory. (Author/GB)

Two experiments are an attempt to provide a description of three commonly observed phenomena of recognition behavior for alphabet characters in terms of the mathematics of correlation. (Author/KM)

Age differences in two groups (20-23 years, and 49-65 years) were investigated for the speed of retrieval in both primary and secondary memories. Discussion centered on the role that the older subjects slowed retrieval searches play in their more general learning-memory deficit. (DP)

This paper is concerned with word-recognition processes when the recognition test includes associates of the to-be-remembered words presented earlier. (Author)

It is concluded that stimulus grouping can aid short-term memory span only when the method of stimulus grouping is compatible with the method of response grouping. (Author/CB)

Study considered whether distinctive orthography would lead to differential recognition performance when high- and low-distinctiveness words served as both study and distracter items. (Author)
