Mnemonic-Strategy Reduction of Prose-Learning Interference.

McCormick, Christine B.; And Others

Educational Communication and Technology: A Journal of Theory, Research, and Development, v32 n3 p145-52 Fall 1984

Describes an investigation of the effects of mnemonic processing on interference phenomena. College students in two treatment groups and a control group read fictitious biographical passages. Although integrated imagery-mnemonic subjects recalled more factual information than separate mnemonic subjects, their recall was not statistically different from that of control subjects. (MBR)
