Mode of input in long-term recognition.

Recent research by Garabedian, Yekovich, Sherman, and Dean has demonstrated that recognition from long-term memory was superior for words presented visually over those presented auditorily. Because their results could have been influenced by the salience of the projected visual items, the present investigation attempted to eliminate the possible visual bias. 16 undergraduates were presented a list of nouns of mixed input modality and were tested 6 min. later for incidental recognition of input mode. The present data corroborated findings by Garabedian, et al. who postulated that subjects use some form of stored visual information when identifying the input mode of words.
