Hypothesis:
Participants will be more likely to recall items from the beginning and end of the list than items from
the middle of the list. This is known as the serial position effect.
Results:
If the hypothesis is supported, participants will have a higher average recall rate for items at the
beginning and end of the list than for items in the middle of the list.
Discussion:
