Question

A research participant is required to report as much of a poem as he can remember, immediately after having read the poem once. We would expect the greatest number of recall errors in lines:

Answer 1

Answer:

in the middle of the poem

Explanation:

The recency effects supports the fact that in the process of reading or listing, the human brain is more likely to remember things that are read late more than those that are presented in the middle of the reading or list. The primacy effects ensures that things earlier in the list or reading are remembered more than those in the middle. Hence the greatest number of recall errors is seen in the middle.
