Waiting for the stimulus suffix: Decay, delay, rhythm, and readout in immediate memory

TLDR
The delayed suffix effect is consistent with a fourth hypothesis whose emphasis is on access to precategorical auditory information through a “readout” process rather than on the sheer availability of such information.Abstract:
The degree to which a redundant suffix impairs performance on digit lists depends on the delay between the last memory item and the suffix. A set of three experiments is offered, establishing the inadequacy of hypotheses based on simple decay of prelinguistic information, passage of time before recall, and rhythmic periodicities in attention. The delayed suffix effect is consistent with a fourth hypothesis whose emphasis is on access to precategorical auditory information through a “readout” process rather than on the sheer availability of such information.read more

The phonological store of working memory: is it phonological, and is it a store?
TL;DR: Although evidence for an interaction among modality, phonological similarity, and articulatory suppression was found, its presence could be diminished by a suffix, which is an acoustic, not a phonological factor.

Perceptual organization masquerading as phonological storage: Further support for a perceptual-gestural view of short-term memory
TL;DR: This article examined whether the survival of the phonological similarity effect under articulatory suppression for auditory but not visual to-serially recalled lists is a perceptual effect rather than an effect arising from the action of a bespoke phonological store.

The modality effect and echoic persistence.
TL;DR: The modality effect refers to the higher level of recall of the last few items of a list when presentation is auditory as opposed to visual, and it is concluded that echoic information can persist for many seconds and is used directly at the time of recall.

Availability versus accessibility of information in memory for words
Endel Tulving,Zena Pearlstone +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the S s learned, on a single trial, lists of words belonging to explicitly designated conceptual categories, which varied in terms of length (12, 24, and 48 words) and number of words per category (1, 2, and 4).

Short-term memory in vision
E. Averbach,A. S. Coriell +1 more
TL;DR: Results indicate that the visual process involves a buffer storage which includes an erasure mechanism that is local in character and tends to erase stored information when new information is put in.

Precategorical acoustic storage (PAS)
Robert G. Crowder,John Morton +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a precategorical acoustic storage (PAS) is proposed, which receives information only from the ears and is not affected by silent rehearsal or by visual stimulation, and is explicitly distinguished from storage in terms of articulation.

Method, findings, and theory in studies of visual masking.
TL;DR: Classifies the various paradigms in the study of visual masking and relates them to cases of interference among cotemporaneous stimuli and introduces a distinction between criterion content and criterion level in the discussion of detection under masks and metacontrast.
