- 1Bower And SpringstonAim: to test the effects of chunking.
Method: They had two groups of participants. The control groups were presented with words such as: FB, IPH, DTW, AIB and M. The experimental group was given the same letters however they were reorganised: FBI, PHD, CIA and IBM. The arrangement in the experimental group would make sense to use as we recognize them and therefore we automatically chunk them.
Results: Experimental group recalled more letters.
Conclusion: The researches concluded that chunking does in fact increase short-term memory as we recognise the arrangement of letters to something, which would be stored in our long-term memory such as FBI.
