Macht, Michael L.; Spear, Norman E. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Learning and Memory, 1977
Two experiments investigated the effects of a prior-cuing procedure on retention after short intervals. Results indicated that both latency of correct recall and category recall are facilitated by a cue statement administered prior to the recall test. Results are also discussed in relation to spreading-activation models of memory processing.…

Loftus, Elizabeth F.; And Others – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Learning and Memory, 1978
1,242 subjects, in five experiments plus a pilot study, saw a series of slides depicting a single auto-pedestrian accident. These experiments investigate how information supplied after an event influences a witness's memory for that event. Results suggest that information supplied a witness after an event, whether inconsistent or misleading, is…

Bellezza, Francis S.; And Others – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Learning and Memory, 1977
Three experiments were performed to determine if the use of an organizational strategy influenced free-recall performance more than did the degree of semantic elaboration. (Editor)

Guenther, R. Kim; Klatzky, Roberta L. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Learning and Memory, 1977
These experiments consider similarities and differences between classifications of pictorial and verbal stimuli in order to investigate whether the kinds of information used differ depending on the stimulus class. Three hypotheses regarding the information used in picture and word classification were evaluated. (Author/RK)

Pezdek, Kathy – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Learning and Memory, 1977
This research attempts to determine whether integration of information occurs when the information is presented partly in the verbal modality and partly in the pictorial modality; in other words, does cross-modality integration occur? (Author/RK)

Waters, Harriet Salatas; Waters, Everett – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Learning and Memory, 1976
Kindergarten and second-grade children's free recall on repeated trials was investigated using a semantic orienting task procedure. (Editor)

Seamon, John G.; Murray, Pauline – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Learning and Memory, 1976
Structural and semantic levels of processing were distinguished in two experiments that varied stimulus meaningfulness in an incidental learning paradigm. (Editor)

McDaniel, Mark A.; Masson, Michael E. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Learning and Memory, 1977
It has been demonstrated that instructions to learn have no effect on immediate recall in the incidental learning paradigm used by Jenkins (1974). This research further investigated this finding by factorially manipulating recall instructions (incidental vs. intentional learning), presentation rate of materials, retention interval, and type of…
