Abstract
An index of the primacy to recency shift during immediate free recall was developed . As predicted, reading aloud during encoding and longer list length was associated with a recency-dominated recall pattern. Future directions for the index include prediction of subjective memory impairment and biomarkers of preclinical Alzheimer’s disease.
