MonographDOI
Thinking about human memory
TL;DR: Thinking About Human Memory provides a novel analytical approach to understanding memory that considers the goals of the memory task, the cues and information available, the opportunity to learn, and interference from irrelevant information (noise).
Journal ArticleDOI
Recognition and recall as a function of instructional manipulations of organization
Journal ArticleDOI
The derivation of endpoint and distance effects in linear orderings from frequency information
TL;DR: In this paper, a modification of the original frequency analysis was made to include the learning of the frequency with which words occur as the lesser member of a pair or relationship, and the pattern of errors appeared to be essentially the same on Trial 1 as it was on all trials.
Journal ArticleDOI
A sequential sampling account of response bias and speed-accuracy tradeoffs in a conflict detection task.
TL;DR: The validity of a sequential sampling model of conflict detection in a simulated air traffic control task is tested by assessing whether two of its key parameters respond to experimental manipulations in a theoretically consistent way and whether these parameters can be used to gain an insight into the underlying response bias and speed-accuracy preferences common to dynamic decision-making tasks.
Journal ArticleDOI
Stimulus comparison strategies and task demands in successive discrimination
TL;DR: This research isolates two distinct strategies used to identify stimuli presented at different rates in successive discrimination tasks, and indicates that strategy choice is strongly influenced by event rate, and therefore by the presence or absence of sensory traces of preceding stimuli.
