Previous studies of memory for novel visual patterns have reported how item recognition varies across serial positions, but have neglected serial order memory. In Expts 1 and 2 participants reported the order in which short series of novel patterns had been presented. The results showed markedly bowed serial position curves similar to those reported for sequences of verbal items or spatial locations. Concurrent articulation reduced performance in the serial report task relative to the memory ...

	Serial report and item recognition of novel visual patterns. British Journal of Psychology ; Qualitative differences have been reported between the serial position curves obtained with verbal stimuli (letters and words) and those obtained using visual materials which are difficult to describe verbally. Many studies have shown that serial position curves for verbal materials show primacy

British Journal of Psychology ; Work on short-term memory has been largely concerned with vision and audition, and in these modalities predominantly with verbal material. This work led to the development of the 'modal' model of memory (Atkinson & Shiffrin, 1968; Waugh & Norman, 1965), which is now subject to some dispute
	Serial position effects in short-term visual memory: A SIMPLE explanation? Memory & Cognition ; A version of Sternberg's (1966) short-term visual memory recognition paradigm with pictures of unfamiliar faces as stimuli was used in three experiments to assess the applicability of the distinctiveness-based SIMPLE model proposed by Brown, Neath, and Chater (2002). Initial simulations indicated
	Serial position effects in social transmission of food preference Learning & Behavior ; The serial position effect in Long-Evans rats was evaluated in two experiments. In Experiment 1, the effect in a group for which an interstimulus interval (ISI) was introduced between items in a list of demonstrators was compared with that in a group without an ISI. With an ISI, a recency effect
