Loftus, Geoffrey R.; Kallman, Howard J. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Learning and Memory, 1979
Subjects who named details in pictures performed better on subsequent recognition tests than their counterparts. Data support a model which assumes: (1) a constant probability of encoding a detail and (2) a detail is named either if it was encoded at study or with some bias probability. (Author/CP)

Durso, Francis T.; Johnson, Marcia K. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Learning and Memory, 1979
Subjects named or categorized a picture preceded sometime earlier by itself or by its verbal label, as well as a word preceded by itself or a pictorial counterpart. Pictures clearly profited more when the task was naming, whereas words profited more when subjects performed a categorization task. (Author/GDC)

Kunen, Seth; And Others – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Learning and Memory, 1979
The spread of encoding concept was tested visually by having subjects view pictures which varied in contour completeness. The hypothesis was supported that as contour completeness decreased, the amount of perceptual analysis and memory performance would increase. (Author/MH)
