“…The results of the present experiment are in strong agreement with the results of the previous one-trial-one-test experiment of Schumsky et al (1967). No loss of retention associated with retention interval was found in this or the previous experiment.…”

“…In a previous study (Schumsky et al, 1967), some concern about the generality of the findings was indicated because the investigators were unable to find in the literature any other studies employing a similar recall procedure. Since the publication of that paper, there have appeared in the literature a few experiments employing a procedure involving the presenta-tion of a list and cueing for recall out of that list by ordinal serial position Woodward & Murdock, 1968).…”

“…It would follow then that some of the important findings in STM experiments can be obscured by a procedure which sums the data from many memory test trials. Keppel (1965) and Schumsky, Grasha, Eimer, and Trinder (1967) argued that one test of a simple trace decay notion must involve a truly minimal memory experiment. This experiment must be a one-trial, single test of STM.…”

Each of 803 6"s was required to learn a sequence of 3, 5, or 7 CVCs in one presentation. A group testing procedure was employed in which 6" recalled the first, middle, or last item in the list after either 0, IS, or 30 sec. Results revealed statistically significant effects associated with list length and serial position. No significant effects were associated with interval. The data were interpreted as suggesting that memory loss over interval does not appear unless S experiences a series of trials.

“…The results of the present experiment are compatible with the data from the "one trialone test" experiments of Schumsky et al (1967Schumsky et al ( , 1969. No loss of retention associated with retention interval was found in this or the previous experiments using the singletrial technique.…”

“…Retention of an item on Trial n is not independent of previous tests and any multitrial procedure is best considered as a series of individual tests with retention changes occurring as a function of the ordinal position of those tests. Keppel (1965); Schumsky, Grasha, Eimer, and Trinder (1967); and Schumsky, Grasha, Trinder, and Richman (1969) argued that one test of a simple trace decay notion must involve a truly minimal memory experiment. The procedure employed to test the decay notion in the Schumsky et al (1969) experiment was a one-trial single test of STM.…”

Each of 845 5s was required to learn a sequence of seven or nine consonants in one presentation. A group testing procedure was employed in which 5 recalled or recognized the first, middle, or last item in the list after either 0, IS, or 30 sec. In both retention measures, results revealed statistically significant effects associated with list length and serial position. No statistically significant effects were associated with interval or retention measures. The data were interpreted as supporting a list-discrimination view of recall and recognition and suggested that a memory loss over interval does not appear unless 5 experiences a sequence of memory tests.
