Modelling the relationship between visual short-term memory capacity and recall ability [PDF]

, 2008
Previous cognitive modelling work has suggested that the decline of short-term memory (STM) capacity is the dominant factor of age-related decline on recall ability. We report the results of a set of experiments investigating in further detail the effect
