From: Explicit Sequence Memory in Recall of Temporally-structured Episodes
Experimental procedure for a single list in the two experiments. Participants were presented with 16 words successively (study phase), after which they had one minute to type as many words they could recall in any order (recall phase). In the no-order condition this constituted a single list, whereas in the order condition, recall was followed by an ordering task. Participants were presented with a pair of items recalled in the previous phase on the top of the screen. They were instructed to order each of the items appearing at the top of the screen, by dragging them, using the mouse, to the bottom of screen according to their initial position during the study phase. Participants had 13 s to perform the task, after which the screen was refreshed and a new pair was presented. The number of pairs presented in the order phase depended on the participants’ recall in the previous phase.
