The Serial Position Effect in Web Design
November 6, 2010 | Oliver Wrede | Hinterlasse einen Kommentar
Christian Holst schreibt über den Zusammenhang von Listen und der Erinnerung ihrer Inhalte:
The “serial position effect” describes how list items that are first and last in a list are more likely to be remembered than the items in the middle.
Furthermore, the medium of the list, how fast the list items are presented, and the time between exposure and decision, will greatly affect which is better: being first or being last.

Ein Artikel in einem Weblog zum Thema »Rhetorik im Cyberspace« über die Frage ob Videospiele die Vorstellungskraft hemmen. Hierzu scheint es immer wieder kontroverse und widersprüchliche Studien und Belege zu geben, die mit der zunehmenden technischen Fiinesse und Immersionsmöglichkeit sicher nicht leichter werden.

»Memory Prosthesis: The aim of this research project is to build technology to help people remember. The problem of forgetting should be familiar to most anyone and it is likely that the reader will not remember much about this paper in a week. Memory aids have existed for as long as one can remember. Strings tied on fingers, Post-it Notesª, and Palm Pilotsª are all examples of tools people use to help remember. However, all of these require active effort in order for the memory to be triggered and none take advantage of the plethora of potential memory triggers available to the would-be rememberer. Computers can help.«

»The Pentagon canceled its so-called LifeLog project, an ambitious effort to build a database tracking a person’s entire existence.
Run by Darpa, the Defense Department’s research arm, LifeLog aimed to gather in a single place just about everything an individual says, sees or does: the phone calls made, the TV shows watched, the magazines read, the plane tickets bought, the e-mail sent and received. Out of this seemingly endless ocean of information, computer scientists would plot distinctive routes in the data, mapping relationships, memories, events and experiences.«

Fun with linguistics and rhetoric

»Want to know the difference between metonymy and metaphor? Then you might enjoy this glossary of linguistics and rhetoric.
Interestingly enough, this glossary is brought to you from the folks at RinkWorks, who provide an “expansive collection of entertainment-related features” that include Don’t Throw a Brick Straight Up and Pea Soup for the Cynic’s Soul.
There are some other glossaries for the word oriented. There’s this one of fun words (who knew ‘anthropophagy’ meant cannibalism?) and this one of commonly looked up words.«
