Experimental Psychology. READ INSTRUCTION FIRST

Greetings.
This essay is supposed to be theoretical part of a report to a simple research in Experimental Psychology class. The whole work is about people’s ability to recall pictures. Participants were shown a sequence of 20 pictures. After that they were asked to recall them. There were two categories (independent variables) we looked for: level of education (high school and college) and time of day (morning and night). Our analysis showed that level of education didn’t affect ability to recall pictures. On the other hand, time of day when the test was performed affected the number of pictures recalled.
This particular “essay” is just the theory behind people’s memory performance depending on their level of education and time of day when such performance takes place. It must be based on previous studies and scientific works. It would be better if you could find works that used pictures as stimuli to remember; however, it is not a must.
At least 3 sources should be used with this essay.
