Past research on recency effect?
Hi,
I have found some past research on the recency effect regarding the serial position efffect. Could anyone please suggest some good sites where there is information on the research conducted by various psychologists? I found some links and references regarding journals from 1960s, 70s, etc. but can't find them online any where, such as on Google Books.
I really appreciate your time and help.
Thanks in advance! {{^_^}}

I'm assuming you're a psychology student. Lucky for you, so am I and I did a lab report on memory, serial position curve and recency effect not so long ago. Unfortunately I lost the USB I had it saved to, otherwise I'd post the links, but I've just realised that won't help you because you need to be a student at my uni to access them. But there is HEAPS out there, I typed in Serial Position Effect and Recency Effect into just one of the many databases my uni gives me access to and 504 articles popped up. I'll post the details of a couple.
