The Effect of Music Amplitude on the Reaction to Unexpected Visual Events
The effects of music amplitude on participants' response time to randomly presented, unexpected, visual events were investigated. Ninety participants completed a motor-reaction task without music and with music played at 60, 70, or 80 dBA. Males preferred more intense music than females did, with males selecting a comfort level of 72 dBA and females, 66 dBA. However, participants' reaction time and the total time to respond to a randomly activate…
Effects of Vocabulary Size and Acoustic Similarity on Serial Recall of Mouthed Stimuli
The characteristics of mouthed recency and suffix effects found in immediate serial recall tasks with visually presented stimuli were examined. In past research enhanced recency with mouthing when stimuli were drawn from Size 8 but not Size 3 vocabularies was found (Turner et al., 1987). One cause for these findings may have been differences in the acoustic similarity between items from the Size 3 and Size 8 vocabularies. In the present experimen…
Effects of Same-Modality Interference on Immediate Serial Recall of Auditory and Visual Information
Two studies investigated the effects of same-modality interference on the immediate serial recall of auditorily and visually presented stimuli. Typically, research in which this task is used has been conducted in quiet rooms, excluding auditory information that is extraneous to the auditorily presented stimuli. However, visual information such as background items clearly within the subject's view have not been excluded during visual presentation.…

On the social advantages of having an older, opposite-sex sibling: Birth order influences in mixed-sex dyads
This study examined the influences of birth order on behavior occurring in the initial, unstructured interactions of 40 mixed-sex dyads composed of a man and a woman who each had a sibling of the opposite sex. The design contrasted four different dyad types: (a) a firstborn man paired with a firstborn woman, (b) a firstborn man paired with a last born woman, (c) a last born man paired with a firstborn woman and (d) a last born man paired with a l…
