Alexander, Richard – Developmental Psychology, 1977
Experiment 1 compared 6- and 8-year-old boys in inter- and intramodal matching of fast or slow spatiotemporal patterns with long or short interpattern intervals. Experiment 2 made the same comparisons for 7- and 9-year-old boys using temporal patterns. (Author/JMB)

Enns, James T. – Developmental Psychology, 1987
Measured the pattern goodness effect at visual encoding stages and short term memory stages in observers aged 6 to 22 years using a speeded sequential same-different paradigm. Found goodness effects were larger in short term memory for all subjects, memory effects decreased with age, and encoding effects remained constant. (SKC)

Ashby, F. Gregory; Townsend, James T. – Psychological Review, 1986
Several varieties of perceptual independence are investigated, including sampling independence, dimensional orthogonality, stimulus separability and integrality, and performance parity. A general multivariate perceptual theory is developed, and a precise definition of perceptual independence is offered. (Author/LMO)

Schrader, C. L. – Journal of Chemical Education, 1984
Discusses instructional strategies and activities designed to help students learn to recognize patterns and to create models to explain patterns. These include laboratory investigations and an exercise in which students are challenged to find the model used for the classroom seating arrangement. (JN)

Haith, Marshall M.; Morrison, Frederick J. – Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 1976
A recall paradigm tested twenty-four 5-year-olds and twenty-four adults on short-term recognition memory for briefly presented visual information. Results indicate that processes other than verbal labeling are probably more responsible for age differences in immediate memory performance than labeling. (JH)
