Question 11 of 16

1

Glanzer and Cunitz (1966) conducted a study in which they asked participants to recall a list of words. Half of the participants were required to recall the list of words immediately. What did their results show?

Select one of the following:

  • All participants only remembered 7 words

  • Individuals tended to forget most of the words on the list apart from the last words, as short-term memory has limited duration

  • Participants tended to remember the first few and last few words and are more likely to forget those in the middle of the list

  • Participants tended to remember the words in the middle of the list and forget the words at the beginning and end of the list

Explanation
