{ "pk": 31712, "title": "Working Memory Failure in Phone-Based Interaction", "subtitle": null, "abstract": "This paper investigates working memory failure in\nmenu driven Phone-Based Interaction (PBT). W e have\nused a computational model of Phone-Based Interaction\n(PBI USER ) to generate predictions about the impact of\nthree factors on W M failure: PBI features (i.e., m e n u\nstructure), individual differences (i.e., W M capacity) and\ntask characteristics (i.e., task format and number of\ntasks). Our computational model is based on the theory\nof W M proposed by Just and Carpenter (1992). This\ntheory stipulates that the storage and the processing of\ninformation generate demands for W M resources. Our\nempirical results provide strong evidence for the\nimportance of storage demands, and moderate evidence\nfor the importance of processing demands as predictors\nof W M failure in PBI. In addition, our results provide\nevidence for the importance of individual differences in\nW M capacity as a predictor of W M failure in PBI.\nFinally, our results indicate that, contrary to general\nguidelines for the design of PBI, deep menu hierarchies\n(no more than three options per menu ) do not reduce\nWM error ratesin PBI.", "language": "eng", "license": { "name": "", "short_name": "", "text": null, "url": "" }, "keywords": [], "section": "Submitted Presentations", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/3b9234c5", "frozenauthors": [ { "first_name": "Brian", "middle_name": "R.", "last_name": "Huguenard", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "Carnegie Mellon University", "department": "" }, { "first_name": "F.", "middle_name": "Javier", "last_name": "Lerch", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "Carnegie Mellon University", "department": "" } ], "date_submitted": null, "date_accepted": null, "date_published": "1993-01-01T18:00:00Z", "render_galley": null, "galleys": [ { "label": "PDF", "type": "pdf", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/cognitivesciencesociety/article/31712/galley/22780/download/" } ] }
