SAM and the effects of precuing in probed recall. A comment on 'The time course of precuing effects in probed immediate recall', by AJP Hendriks
article
Hendrikx (1987) observed that precuing in the positional probe paradigm leads to faster responses but not to a higher probability of correct recall. He claimed that the SAM theory proposed by Raaijmakers and Shiffrin (1980, 1981) predicts an advantage for both latency and accuracy. Hence, these results were believed to be incompatible with the SAM theory. It is shown that this claim is false and is based on an incorrect analysis of the experimental paradigm. The SAM theory is shown to be able to give a simple explanation for these data
