Self-Referent Processing and Recall of Prose.
Reeder, Glenn D.; And Others
Journal of Educational Psychology, v79 n3 p243-48 Sep 1987
Two studies examined the role of self-reference as a mnemonic for prose material. Prior to reading descriptive passages, undergraduate students received self-reference, other-reference, linguistic, or control processing instructions. Overall, the self-reference instructions resulted in the greatest amount of recall. (Author/LMO)
