Reviews

Margaret Intons-Peterson should be designated the grande dame of short term memory by virtue of her pioneering work with Lloyd Peterson on techniques for its measurement. -CHOICE The strength of the book lies in its breadth, and the mixing of theoretical questions with everyday, real-life applications. -Applied Cognitive Psychology ...the writing is clear and the chapters should be easily accessible to undergraduate psychology students. -Journal of Mathematical Psychology
