AbstractThe purpose of this study was to examine the effect of time of day as well as practice effects on Forward and Backward Corsi Block Test and Digit Span. In this study participants were given this series of memory tests up to twelve times, at various times of day. Results of the Corsi Block Test and Digit Span showed that time of day (which was related to reported tiredness) was not related to memory. Results also indicated that the forward memory tasks produced higher memory recall than backward. Practice effects were not found, due to the Corsi Block Test and Digit Span being stable over time.
