STM Capacity for Chinese and English Language Materials.

Summary: Pending
"This paper delineates the theoretical implications of a program of research on short-term memory using Chinese characters as stimuli, and compares the findings with studies of short-term memory that use English language materials. The 14 experiments on which it is principally based, carried out in the People's Republic of China and in the U.S.A, are reported in detail in Yu et al. (1984),... One major theoretical product of this research is an experimentally tested model that reconciles the chunking theory of STM capacity with the articulatory loop theory of Baddeley, making good quantitative predictions of capacity compatible with both."
