Abstract

Judgments of recency were found to depend on whether the event judged had occurred once or twice. Repeated events outside of the immediate memory span were judged more recent when the occurrences were massed, but the effect was not consistent with spaced occurrences. Subjects judged the frequency of spaced repetitions as accurately as massed repetitions. The results were interpreted as supporting a view that Ss judge recency by discriminating strength of traces.
