Interference effects in short-term memory
8
TL;DR: In this paper, the modality relation between memory task and interference task was explored and the amount of recall was found to be a function of the memory strategies used by the subjects, with active strategies producing highest recall.

Abstract: .— Two experiments exploring the modality relation between memory task and interference task are reported. With visual and verbal tasks, variations in modality relation did not influence the total amount recalled. The usual serial position effect was observed when memory and interference task were of different modalities. The amount of recall was found to be a function of the memory strategies used by the subjects, ‘active’ strategies producing highest recall.

Temporal interval production and short-term memory.
David T. Field,John A. Groeger +1 more
TL;DR: Four experiments are reported in which subjects were trained to produce a 2,500-msec interval and then perform concurrent memory tasks, in which the counter component is supported by short-term memory.
What is a melody? On the relationship between pitch and brightness of timbre.
TL;DR: It is shown here that sequences of sounds varying in brightness of timbre are processed with the same efficiency as pitch sequences, suggesting that the processes dedicated to pitch and brightness analysis, when probed with a sequence-discrimination task, share unexpected similarities.
Presence and absence of serial position effects in short‐term memory
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the nature of serial position effects with a method based on pooled observations and found that the usual serial position pattern was affected in several ways, primacy and recency effects often being absent, and attempted to create anchor points and to ascribe serial positions verbally, were generally found to favour recency over primacy effects.

Levels of processing: A framework for memory research
TL;DR: This paper reviewed the evidence for multistore theories of memory and pointed out some difficulties with the approach and proposed an alternative framework for human memory research in terms of depth or levels of processing.

An experimental study of visual imagination and memory
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that an irrelevant visual perception interferes more with verbal learning by means of imagery than does an irrelevant auditory perception, and that the relative interfering effects of these perceptions were reversed in a verbal learning task involving highly abstract materials.
