Pictures and Words and Space and Time: In Search of the Elusive Interaction

Snodgrass, Joan Gay; And Others

Journal of Experimental Psychology: General, 107, 2, 206-30, Jun 78

This research tested Paivio's (1971) proposal that pictorial and verbal memory codes interact with space and time. This "interaction hypothesis" states that pictorial memory codes are specialized for spatial structures and verbal memory codes are specialized for temporal structures. Tests this hypothesis by exploring several variations of a pair-order recognition paradigm introduced previously (Snodgrass & Antone, 1974). (Editor/RK)
