Abstract

Twenty-five words were assigned to all combinations of the spatial numerosities 1-5 and the presentation frequencies 1-5. Frames displaying the appropriate number of copies of each word were repeated the appropriate number of times, and subjects attempted to memorize the words’ numerosities. A combination frequency-judgment and numerosity-recall test was then given. Numerosity showed no tendency to intrude in the frequency-judgment task, and there was only marginal evidence for interference in the opposite direction. The results are interpreted as further support for the view that presentation frequency has a privileged representation, which is not shared with other kinds of quantitative information in memory.
