Iconic memory.

    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    The concept of pre-categorical sensory memory for visual information is supported. Visual display processing involves parallel transfer to post-categorical memory, then serial transfer for response.

    Area of Science:

    • Cognitive Psychology
    • Visual Perception

    Background:

    • Iconic memory research investigates the initial stages of visual information processing.
    • Understanding how brief visual displays are processed is crucial for cognitive models.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To review and evaluate the evidence for iconic memory in visual display processing.
    • To propose a model for the transfer of information from sensory to post-categorical memory.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of existing literature on iconic memory and visual processing.
    • Theoretical modeling of information transfer stages.

    Main Results:

    • The concept of pre-categorical sensory memory for visual material remains tenable.
    • Visual display report ability depends on parallel transfer from iconic to post-categorical memory, followed by serial transfer to an output stage.

    Conclusions:

    • Pre-categorical information in post-categorical memory must be accessible for selection.
    • Temporary files containing both pre- and post-categorical features may facilitate this access and transfer.
