- BPrimacy effect
10When participants remember the words from the end of the list but not the beginning is an example of___
- ARecency Effect
- BPrimacy Effect
11Articulatory suppression
- AEngaging in an auditory task after study removes phonological effect for visual items
- BEngaging in an auditory task after study adds phonological effect for visual items

12You are going to see a list of words. At the end of the list, I will ask you to recall as many words as you can. While the words appear on the screen, I want you to repeated " Pickles " out loud over and over again. This is an example of:
- APrimacy Effect
- BPhonological Loop

- BRehearsal
- CArticulatory suppression

- ATrue
- BFalse
17Your Phonological Loop:
- AHolds information over long periods of time
- BHolds and manipulates auditory information over short intervals
- CHearing and phone number and repeating it multiple times until you have it written down
- DNon-auditory inputs (e.g., visually presented words), can be converted into
phonological format, then stored in phonological loop - ENon-auditory inputs (e.g., visually presented words), can be converted into
visual format, then stored in phonological loop

- Aholds auditory information for a long period of time
- BInformation can enter from: Direct visual perception and
LTM - CCan be treated as spatial imagery
- DCan be treated as precept (zoom, rotation, etc.)
- EApart of spatial processing
