一些理论家认为,在自由回忆中观察到的即时近因效应反映了短期记忆缓冲内容的清空(Davelaar, Goshen-Gottstein, Ashkenazi, Haarmann, & Usher, 2005)。其他人则认为,即时近代性反映了用于提示自由回忆的时间背景的特性(Howard & Kahana, 2002)。我们研究了对列表的即时自由回忆,在列表的中间或接近末尾重复一个项目。如果联想过程有助于即时近因,正如时间语境解释所预测的那样,重复项目的初始呈现的邻居应该在即时回忆的初始阶段表现出增强的回忆。在输出的早期回忆过渡——甚至回忆本身的开始——显示出与长期记忆中观察到的回忆相似的暂时定义关联的证据。这些结果对自由回忆中即时近因效应的模型具有重要意义。
Some theorists have argued that the immediate recency effect observed in free recall reflects the emptying out of the contents of a short-term memory buffer (Davelaar, Goshen-Gottstein, Ashkenazi, Haarmann, & Usher, 2005). Others have argued that immediate recency reflects the properties of temporal context used to cue free recall (Howard & Kahana, 2002). We examined immediate free recall of lists with an item from the middle of the list repeated at or near the end. If associative processes contribute to immediate recency, as predicted by the temporal context account, the neighbors of the initial presentation of the repeated item should show enhanced recall at the initial stages of immediate recall. Recall transitions early in output-and even the initiation of recall itself-showed evidence for temporally defined associations that resemble those observed in recall from long-term memory. These results have strong implications for models of the immediate recency effect in free recall.
