Abstract
We report a partial replication of previous results by Caplan, Rochon, and Waters (1992), using methods that address objections raised by Ba ddeley and Andrade (this issue) and that improve on several techniques used by them. The results cast doubts on the role of articulation in determining the word length effect in span, and hence on the role of a rticulation in rehearsal.
