Semantic similarity dissociates shortfrom long-term recency effects: testing a neurocomputational model of list memory [PDF]
, 2006 The finding that recency effects can occur not only in immediate free recall (i.e., short-term recency) but also in the continuous-distractor task (i.e., long-term recency) has led many theorists to reject the distinction between short- and long-term ...

Mechanisms of age-related decline in memory search across the adult life span [PDF]
, 2013 Three alternative mechanisms for age-related decline in memory search have been proposed, which result from either reduced processing speed (global slowing hypothesis), overpersistence on categories (cluster-switching hypothesis), or the inability to ...
