Effect of Modality on Transfer of Linguistic Stimuli from Short-Term to Long Term Memory: Evidence on Immediate and Delayed Recall

Memory is considered as an important cognitive domain found to be in our daily-walks of life. Short term and long memory are the main variants under memory. The information short prone transferred through attention, practice, rehearsal. current study aims investigate effect modality on transfer linguistic stimuli from 20 neuro-typical Tamil speaking participants were recruited for study. divided into two groups based random sampling. Auditory task was administered first group where presented with sentences asked remember key/content word. While auditory plus visual second participants. Recall words tested at level immediate delayed recall conditions. On condition, there no difference between but stimulus presentation had a significant role performed well compared modalities
