Abstract
A modified Sternberg (1966) procedure with target sets of 3 to 18 food names was used with instructions either to rehearse items or to form a visual image of them. Under rehearsal instructions, omission errors (failures to recognize probed items that had been in the target set) were predominant; under imaging instructions, a small number of errors were made both for probed items in and not in the target set. A pronounced serial position effect emerged under rehearsal instructions, but only a small recency effect was evident under the imaging instructions. Thus results with rehearsal seem compatible with a buffer model, but imaging results do not.
