“…Healy et al (2000) found different functions for the two free reconstruction of order tasks, even though they both showed primacy and recency advantages (see also Healy & McNamara, 1996). It was found that the serial position function for the long-term semantic memory task had a larger recency advantage than that for the immediate episodic memory task, and there was a penultimate advantage for positions prior to the most recent for the long-term semantic memory task but not for the immediate episodic task (see also Gerrard & Waring, 2006). This finding led Healy, Havas, and Parker (2000) to dispute the position distinctiveness explanation for the serial position function in the long-term semantic memory task in favor of an explanation based on the familiarity of the presidents or the frequency of exposure to relevant order information.…”
