Abstract
Reports 2 experiments in which a dichotic-bisensory stimulus presentation was used. In Exp I, 4 stimulus pairs were presented to 6 undergraduates in a trial, 2 dichotic pairs being alternated with 2 visual pairs. The preferred recall order was mode by mode, when all words were to be recalled, and ear by ear for auditory words. In Exp II, 8 words were presented in a trial to 16 undergraduates, but 4 words, 2 auditory and 2 visual, were simultaneous. S was instructed to recall either the word presented before or after the probe, but in the same ear or same part of the screen, or the word presented at the same time and in the same modality as the probe. Results are interpreted as evidence for the existence of strong associations between successive auditory stimuli. (21 ref) (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2006 APA, all rights reserved)
