Abstract
The ability of subjects to scan only one of two sets of items in short-term memory was investigated as a function of the similarity between the items in the two sets, the type of test used to evaluate retention of the sets, and the number of items in each set. The results indicated that the ability to scan one set of items independent of the number of items in the second set is limited by the capacity of short-term memory and the type of material in the sets.
