How does recency influence the timing of purchasing smartphones? The moderating role of context
Consumers replace their smartphones more frequently, with their increasing requirements for better functions, superior performance, and fancier appearance. The pursuit of replacement may also identify market opportunities and incur business risks.

Recency and lexical preferences in Spanish [PDF]
One experiment provided evidence in support of Gibson, Pearlmutter, Canseco-Gonzalez, and Hickok's (1996) claim that a recency preference applies to Spanish relative clause attachments, contrary to the claim made by Cuetos and Mitchell (1988). Spanish speakers read stimuli involving either two or three potential attachment sites in which the same ...

The coexistence of overestimation and underweighting of rare events and the contingent recency effect [PDF]
Previous research demonstrates overestimation of rare events in judgment tasks, and underweighting of rare events in decisions from experience. The current paper presents three laboratory experiments and a field study that explore this pattern.

The Biggest Loser Thinks Long-Term: Recency as a Predictor of Success in Weight Management
Only a minority of participants in behavioral weight management lose weight significantly. The ability to predict who is likely to benefit from weight management can improve the efficiency of obesity treatment.

Recency-based reward scheme accelerates formation of the same solution state space organization.
(A) Serial position curve error profiles reveal similar uneven and directional trends as with the original reward scheme. Error rates across different lead cues ranged from 76% to 0%, far from the even 25% predicted by a pure recency-based strategy ...

Exploring strategy differences between humans and monkeys with recurrent neural networks.
Animal models are used to understand principles of human biology. Within cognitive neuroscience, non-human primates are considered the premier model for studying decision-making behaviors in which direct manipulation experiments are still possible.

How does aging affect the types of error made in a visual short-term memory ‘object-recall’ task?
This study examines how normal aging affects the occurrence of different types of incorrect responses in a visual short-term memory object-recall task. Seventeen young (Mean = 23.3 years, SD = 3.76), and 17 normally aging older (Mean = 66.5 years, SD = 6.

The Cultural Transmission of Cooperative Norms
Cooperative behavior depends on cultural environment, so what happens when people move from to a new culture governed by a new norm? The dynamics of culture-induced cooperation has not been well understood.
