Flagg, Paul W.; And Others – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Learning and Memory, 1975
Subjects received recognition, meaning, or truth-value instructions in a Bransford and Franks paradigm. The results of two trials indicated that subjects understood and performed very well under recognition and truth-value instructions when constraints on memory were removed. (Editor/RK)

Tzeng, Ovid J. L. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Learning and Memory, 1975
Subjects learned three different paragraphs and then were tested for their memory after one of the three test intervals. Results showed differential decay functions for recognition and inferential memory. (Editor/RK)

Lawson, Robert – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Learning and Memory, 1977
Two experiments were conducted in order to investigate the relationship between memory for individual sentences and memory for the holisitic ideas conveyed by those sentences. (Editor)

Harris, Richard J. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Learning and Memory, 1976
Two experiments were run to test memory for the negation morpheme "not" in coordinate sentences (e.g., The ballerina had twins and the policewoman did not have triplets) and complex sentences (e.g., The ghost scared Hamlet into not murdering Shakespeare). (Editor)

Till, Robert E. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Learning and Memory, 1977
This research was designed to investigate sentence comprehension and recall through an examination of cue effectiveness. It was expected that a cue which contained information about an object that was a probable inference from the sentence would be an effective recall cue. (Author/RK)

Rose, Robert G.; And Others – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Learning and Memory, 1975
The purpose of this investigation was to determine more clearly whether the phenomenon of language retention is found at higher levels of complexity. (Author)

Anderson, John R. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Learning and Memory, 1975
Several computer simulation models of memory represent human knowledge in terms of labeled networks of interconnected ideas. This article attempted to learn in such models how these networks are searched to retrieve relevant information. (Author/RK)

Mynatt, Barbee T.; Smith, Kirk H. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Learning and Memory, 1977
This research was a further test of the theory of constructive processes proposed by Foos, Smith, Sabol, and Mynatt (1976) to account for differences among presentation orders in the construction of linear orders. This theory is composed of different series of mental operations that must be performed when an order relationship is integrated with…
