“…Finally, we note that TPB naturally accounts for contiguity effects (i.e., if item n from a sequence in a free recall paradigm is recalled, then contiguous items at locations n - 1 and n + 1 are likely to be recalled next; Healey et al, 2019 ); and particularly the asymmetric nature of contiguity effects (the item at location n + 1 is more likely to be recalled than the item at location n - 1). Indeed, in TPB, items are preferentially “replayed” in the order in which they appeared, and this has been observed empirically ( Reddy et al, 2015 , 2021 ; Kok et al, 2017 ; Blom et al, 2020 ; Senoussi et al, 2020a ). However, a long list of benchmark phenomena relating to the contiguity effect have been reported (e.g., 34 phenomena by Healey et al, 2019 ), and we do not claim that we can explain them all based on time-based binding; nor, indeed, that time-based binding is responsible for all of them.…”
