Mayer, Richard E. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Learning and Memory, 1979
The idea was explored that different subjects may use qualitatively different encoding strategies with the same information presented within the same experimental situation. The premise was also studied that different strategies may be evoked by subtle differences in advance instructions or in the context of the task. (Author/MH)

Tests the theory that culturally associated words in a pair and nonassociated words in a pair differ after a single study trial in terms of their frequency representation in memory. (Editor/RK)

Glanzer, Murray; Bowles, Nancy – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Learning and Memory, 1976
A general decision-theory analysis of the word-frequency effect in recognition memory is carried out. On the basis of the analysis and data from a forced-choice experiment two distinct causes of the frequency effect are defined. (Editor)

A two-process theory of the spacing (lag) effect in free recall is presented and tested. (Editor/RK)

Moeser, Shannon Dawn – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Learning and Memory, 1979
The fan effect (the difficulty in retrieving any one fact after learning many about a concept) occurs only when the facts with repeated concepts are stored as independent episodes. It tells us nothing about the code formed by a pattern of interconnected concepts. (Author/CP)
