Predictions based on the model advanced by Connolly & Jones (1970) regarding the storage systems involved in cross‐modality matching tasks were examined. Adult subjects made intra‐modal and cross‐modal matches to a range of standard stimuli under three conditions: zero delay between presentation of standard and subject producing his match, interpolation of 10‐sec. unfilled interval and interpolation of 10‐sec. filled interval. The results confirmed previous findings about the properties of visual and kinaesthetic storage systems and their relation to central processing capacity. The hypothesis that translation takes place before storage in cross‐modality matching tasks was also confirmed.
