Research on the cognitive basis of chess skill has focused primarily on chess knowledgestructures and their relevance in accounting for superior recall of briefly presented chesspositions by chess experts. The direct relevance of research on short-term recall of chess positionto superior move selection, is based on two theoretical assumptions that have not been fullytested. The first assumption is that the chess knowledge structures are automatically activatedduring the perception of a position in a similar manner for both tasks requiring short-term recalland selection of the best move. Because experts are thought to have greater knowledge and thisgreater knowledge is thought to be activated automatically it has been argued that experts areless harmed by reduction in available time for selecting a move than weaker players. The secondassumption is that the knowledge structures that mediate the selection of a chess move can beadequately captured by a memory task for briefly presented positions. This dissertationattempted to test these two assumptions. Study 1 found no general interaction between timegiven to solve a chess problem and chess skill on the strength of move selection, instead findinga relatively stable expert advantage across times. Additionally, it established this even for the 5 scondition typically used to study memory. Study 2 presented chess positions to players for 5 seither to select the best move or to recall the position. In the condition involving the selection ofa move, players were asked to recall the position after announcing their selected move. The studyfound substantial differences in the structure of recall between the two conditions. Additionally,certain expected features such as a bimodal distribution of response times were not found callinginto question some assumptions of chunking theory.

He tenido el gran privilegio de poder seguir los logros de un amigo de la infancia, Harm Wiersma, y posteriormente nos encontramos en España en la etapa de adultos. Él fue 6 veces campeón mundial y es el ejemplo perfecto de lo que se puede lograr con las cualidades del juego de damas en los negocios, la política, la academia y nuestra carrera social. En ese sentido, se encuentra en un nivel superior a Ton Sijbrands, que se enfoca únicamente en el juego. Por otro lado, Wiersma no solo fue jugador, sino también hombre de negocios e incluso fue miembro del parlamento en La Haya de un partido político. En las conversaciones que tuve con él, la palabra "impulso" siempre salía a relucir.Intentaré presentar las cualidades que se mejoran al jugar a las damas, y son muchas. Ambos hemos sido capaces de aprovechar estas cualidades en nuestra carrera social. Al tratar estos atributos, el nombre de Wiersma aparece muchas veces. Espero que esta primera parte sea un estímulo para los jóvenes jugadores de damas y ajedrez.
