Monkey auditory list memory: tests with mixed and blocked retention delays.
A rhesus monkey was tested in an auditory list memory task with blocked and mixed retention delays. Each list of four natural or environmental sounds (from a center speaker) was followed by a retention delay (0, 1, 2, 10, 20, or 30 sec) and then by a recognition test (from two side speakers). The monkey had been tested for 12 years in tasks with blocked delays. An earlier (4 years prior) blocke...
متن کاملInterference processes in monkey auditory list memory
This article addresses two venerable issues in the study of memory. One is the shape of the bow-shaped serial position curve and how to explain it (e.g., Nipher, 1876; Ward, 1937). The second issue is the waxing and waning of interference processes in memory over time (Barnes & Underwood, 1959; Melton & von Lackum, 1941). We suggest that these phenomena are related and that processes of interfe...
متن کاملInterference processes in monkey auditory list memory.
A rhesus monkey's memory was tested for single items and four-item lists of natural and environmental sounds. Memory items were presented from a center speaker, followed by a retention delay and then a choice response to a test sound presented simultaneously from two side speakers. Recognition of the last item of four-item lists was much poorer than that of single items at 0-, 1-, and 2-sec del...
متن کاملTaking Memory Tests Improves Long-Term Retention
Taking a memory test not only assesses what one knows, but also enhances later retention, a phenomenon known as the testing effect. We studied this effect with educationally relevant materials and investigated whether testing facilitates learning only because tests offer an opportunity to restudy material. In two experiments, students studied prose passages and took one or three immediate free-...
متن کاملRelation between Working Memory Capacity and Auditory Stream Segregation in Children with Auditory Processing Disorder
Background: This study assessed the relationship between working memory capacity and auditory stream segregation by using the concurrent minimum audible angle in children with a diagnosed auditory processing disorder (APD).Methods: The participants in this cross-sectional, comparative study were 20 typically developing children and 15 children with a diagnosed APD (age, 9–11 years) according to...
