Figure 3

Effects of masking a stimulus word on item recall. Figure 3A shows the probability of recalling an acoustically masked word (M) and the two words preceding it (−2, −1) and following it (+1, +2) for the slow presentation rate. The upper curve shows recall for analogous positions in a control list in which none of the words was masked. Figure 3B shows the same data for the fast presentation rate. Figures 3C and 3D show simulation results for the slow and fast presentation rates respectively. Error bars represent one standard error. Error bars that do not appear were too small to plot.
