A Note on Jensen's Theory of Level 1 Ability and Recent Research on Human Memory

Lawson, M. J.; Jarman, R. F.

British Journal of Educational Psychology, 47, 1, 91-4, Feb 77

The assumptions of Jensen's theory of Level 1 ability are examined in the light of recent research on memory. Experimental studies of organization in both serial and free recall, as well as factor analytic investigations of sequential memory indicate that the current theory requires revision in order to accommodate recent findings.
