Semantic similarity and immediate serial recall: is there a detrimental effect on order information?

Article Abstract:

This article describes four experiments conducted to evaluate the effect of semantic similarity on short-term recall of order information. Despite variations in measurement methodology of order retention, results contradict accepted belief that semantic similarity adversely effects recall.

Individual differences in memory span: the contribution of rehearsal, access to lexical memory, and output speed

Article Abstract:
