Abstract

A total of 102 students in 3 experiments searched through an array of pictures or words for a target item that had been presented as a picture or a word. Results are most consistent with a dual-coding interpretation. That is, items that are cognitively represented both verbally and as nonverbal images can be searched and compared in either mode, depending on the demands of the task.
