Abstract

The nature of coding in verbal short-term memory has been a topic of some considerable debate. Much of the evidence for phonological coding in normal adults is based on the phonological similarity effect; the finding that sequences of items that are phonologically similar to one another are less well recalled than items that are phonologically dissimilar (Conrad, 1964).
