Effects of Number Signals on Reading and Recall.
Lorch, Robert F., Jr.; Chen, Audrey H.
Journal of Educational Psychology, v78 n4 p263-70 Aug 1986
The effects of number signals on text recall were investigated using college-age subjects who read and recalled two texts containing 10 target sentences each. Results demonstrated that number signals directed attention to the sentences they marked, led to better encoding of target information, and influenced the process recall. (Author/LMO)
