Generation and associative encoding in young and old adults: the effect of the strength of association between cues and targets on a cued recall task.

30 Dec 2007 The generation effect (i.e., better recall of the generated items than the read items) was investigated with a between-list design in young and elderly participants. The generation task difficulty was manipulated by varying the strength of ...

Accelerated relearning after retrieval-induced forgetting: the benefit of being forgotten.

30 Dec 2007 Research on retrieval-induced forgetting has demonstrated that retrieving some information from memory can cause the forgetting of other information in memory. Here, the authors report research on the relearning of items that have been subjected to ...

Learning and memory impairment in PTSD: relationship to depression.

30 Dec 2007 Memory function was studied in combat veterans with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), combat veterans without PTSD, and noncombat veterans. The Vocabulary and Digit Span subtests of the WAIS and Logical Memory (LMS) and Verbal Paired Associates ...

Collaborative discourse facilitates efficient communication and new learning in amnesia.

17 Dec 2007 In previous work we reported robust collaborative learning for referential labels in patients with hippocampal amnesia, resulting in increasingly rapid and economical communication or "common ground" with their partners [Duff, M. C., Hengst, J., ...

Homophone effects in visual word recognition depend on homophone type and task demands.

29 Nov 2007 This experiment examined how the characteristics of homophones and their mates influence homophone effects, as a function of task demands. Two types of homophones were presented: 1) low-frequency homophones with higher-frequency mates that are not ...

Divided attention modulates semantic activation: evidence from a nonletter-level prime task.

29 Nov 2007 Research has recently shown that semantic activation is modulated in proportion to the amount of attention required for letter-level processing of the prime (the attention modulation hypothesis; Smith, Bentin, & Spalek, 2001). In this study, we ...

The activation-selection model of meaning: explaining why the son comes out after the sun.

29 Nov 2007 The activation-selection model (ASM) of determining the meaning of an ambiguous word is unique in that it is able to account for the long-term effects of meaning selection without an explicit mechanism for suppressing the representation of the ...

Examining the efficiency of schedules of distributed retrieval practice.

29 Nov 2007 Given that students typically have a sizeable amount of course material to learn but a finite amount of study time, evaluating the efficiency of study schedules is important. We explored the efficiency of various schedules of distributed retrieval ...

How implicitly activated and explicitly acquired knowledge contribute to the effectiveness of retrieval cues.

29 Nov 2007 The extralist cued recall task simulates everyday reminding because a memory is encoded on the fly and retrieved later by an unexpected cue. Target words are studied individually, and recall is cued by associatively related words having preexisting ...

Implicitly activated memories are associated to general context cues.

29 Nov 2007 Words having more densely entangled associative structures are more likely to be recalled in the presence of related extralist cues. A context-modified PIER2 model predicts that the implicit activation of such structures during study connects them ...
