Abstract

We carried out two experiments to investigate the influence of imaging ability, image type evoked (none, normal or bizarre) and rentention interval on serial recall of words. All subjects were university students. During the experiments, subjects who did not follow the instructions correctly (in the opinion of two independent judges) were excluded from the subsequent analysis. Subjects were required to learn short lists (16 items) in the first experiment and long lists (28 items) in the second experiment. All three variables were found to have significant effects on recall.
