Funded Activity Summary

Time and Updating of Memory. What could be simpler than reading a few items, such as the digits in a phone number, and recalling them in the right order a short while later? Notwithstanding its apparent simplicity, this short-term serial recall task underlies sophisticated language abilities such as vocabulary acquisition and utterance production. Similarly, serial retention can be a critical element in mental arithmetic. A better understanding of short-term memory for serial order therefore has wide implications across many areas of education, in particular in primary school settings. The community benefit of this project arises from the improved teaching methods that can be developed on the basis of these results.
