Centro de Documentacion de Fundación MAPFRE - Remembering about documents : memory for appearance, format, and location

Notes: Sumario: If we remember the visual appearance of documents, and other attributes such as location, then a number of new information management strategies become possible candidates for application in the design of filing systems. This paper describes a number of experiments aimed at investigating aspects of memory for documents in office settings. The results of these experiments are more consistent with the view that visual and spatial attributes of documents are remembered in proportion to the attention paid to them when the documents are handled. The experiments also illustrate the sensitivity of this principle to the context in which subjects use documentsRelated records: En: Ergonomics. - London and Washington. - Vol. 34, nº 8, August 1991 ; p. 1161-1178Materia / lugar / evento: Ergonomía Cognición Documentos Oficinas Memorización Información Archivos Secondary titles: Título: Ergonomics
