| Summary: | Many past studies showed that participants performed well during spoken instructions task
with action recall. The discussion was directed to understand the functional role of working
memory components. However, less studies investigated the role of Working Memory
Capacity (WMC) in following instructions. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the effect
of WMC, types of instructions, and recall in following instructions based on the total correct
recall. We recruited 52 participants (26 with high WMC and 26 with low WMC) who
completed spoken and written instruction tasks, followed by verbal and action recall. This
quasi-experimental design used three-way mixed factorial design (2x2x2), and all data were
analysed by using three-way factorial ANOVA. Findings of this study suggested that there is a
significant effect of WMC, types of instructions, and types of recall on following instructions
performance. The results also reveal that there is a significant interaction between WMC and
types of instructions, and between types of instructions and types of recall. One of the main
results suggests that both groups (WMC) performed better during action recall compared to
verbal recall in both types of instructions. |
