Lexical and semantic binding in verbal short-term memory

Article Abstract:

Semantic dementia patients make numerous phoneme migration errors in their immediate serial recall of poorly comprehended words, similar errors are induced in the word recall healthy participants by presenting unpredictable mixed lists of word and nonwords. This technique revealed that lexicality, word frequency, imageability, and the ratio of words to nonwords all influence the stability of the phonological trace.

Automatic and controlled processing in sentence recall: The role of long-term and working memory

Article Abstract:

The role of long-term and working memory in automatic and controlled processing in sentence recall is examined. The results indicate that the contributions from both automatic linguistic processes and attentionally limited working memory are reflected by sentence recall.

Length, lexicality, and articulatory suppression in immediate recall: Evidence against the articulatory loop

Article Abstract:

Influential models of short-term memory have attributed the fact that short words are recalled well than longer words in serial recall to articulatory rehearsal. Under suppression, the length effect is abolished or reversed for real words but remains robust for nonwords.
