Computer processing of free recall data: Program RECALL

Abstract

A computer program for comprehensive analysis of data from free-recall experiments Is described. The program scores recall protocols of each subject for over 30 measures of recall performance, subjective organization, and category clustering, any of which can be plotted for individuals or groups. In addition, the program calculates main-effect and interaction means for the experimental factors on any of the measures. A variety of other analyses, such as serial position curves and probabilities of item recall, are provided also.
