The study supports the claim that there are separate short term and long term memory stores.

The fact the at the recency effect disappears when there is a distractor task involving counting in threes between the presentation of the words and recall shows that...

• rehearsal is necessary to transfer information from STM to LTM

• there is more than one type of short term memory

• encoding is semantic in long term memory

• each store has a limited capacity

Glanzer and Cunitz further investigated the primary and recency effects first demonstrated by Murdock and illustrated in a graph called the

The recency effect occurs as words from the end of the list are still available for retrieval from the
