Recognition Time for Letters and Nonletters: Effects of Serial Position, Array Size, and Processing Order.

Mason, Mildred

Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, v8 n5 p724-38 Oct 1982

Three experiments report additional evidence that it is a mistake to account for all interletter effects solely in terms of sensory variables. These experiments attest to the importance of structural variables such as retina location, array size, and ordinal position. (Author/PN)
