question 36

Multiple Choice

Therefore,participants should report "gravy" after hearing the sequence "girl,grump,hat,scissors,whistle,pen,radio,bed,foot,glass,lantern,gravy." Later,participants are asked to report back all the "G" words they heard.We would anticipate

• A)good recollection of all the words because participants were able to concentrate their attention on the task and rehearsed only one word at a time.
• B)poor recollection of all the "G" words because the situation invites maintenance rather than elaborative rehearsal.
• C)good recollection of "grump," since this word was in the participants' thoughts for a long time (while they were waiting for "glass").
• D)poor recollection of the early words in the list but good recollection of the words in the middle of the list.
