An Experimenter Reads a List of 30 Words to a Group

An experimenter reads a list of 30 words to a group of participants at the rate of one word per second. This is immediately followed by a free-recall test. A second group of participants hears the same 30 words presented at the faster rate of two words per second. We should expect that the group hearing the slower presentation will show improved memory performance for the

A) pre-recency portion of the list, but there will be no impact on the recency effect.
B) words at the end of the list and diminished performance for the pre-recency portion of the list.
C) entire list.
D) words at the list's end, but there will be no improvement for the words earlier in the list.
