Effects of Temporal and Semantic Encoding in Immediate Recall upon Subsequent Retrieval
Bartlett, James Craig; Tulving, Endel – Journal of Verbal Learning and Verbal Behavior, 1974
Two experiments are reported investigating the effects of immediate recall upon subsequent recall and recognition of list items and examining the relation between positive and negative recency effects. (Author/RM)

Controlled Semantic Encoding and the Effect of Repetition Lag on Free Recall
Johnston, William A.; And Others – Journal of Verbal Learning and Verbal Behavior, 1972
Descriptors: Cues, Experiments, Information Processing, Language Research
Instantiation of General Terms
Anderson, Richard C.; And Others – Journal of Verbal Learning and Verbal Behavior, 1976
Three experiments investigated the hypothesis that, when interpreted in context, general terms are typically encoded on the basis of an instantiation. Results indicated that a particular term naming the expected instantiation of a general term was a better cue for recall of a sentence than the general term itself. (CHK)

Memory for Marked Semantic Features versus Memory for Mearning
Brewer, William F.; Lichtenstein, Edward H. – Journal of Verbal Learning and Verbal Behavior, 1974
Research is reported in which a memory-for-marked-semantic-features theory was juxtaposed to a memory-for-meaning theory. The results were interpreted as supporting a global memory-for-meaning theory. (Author/RM)

Comprehension and Semantic Flexibility
Barclay, J. R.; And Others – Journal of Verbal Learning and Verbal Behavior, 1974
A report is made of research designed to investigate some implications of the concept of semantic flexibility for memory. Four studies of cued recall produced evidence that interpretation of familiar, unambiguous words varied with their contexts. Considerations raised by the research are discussed. (Author/RM)

Semantic Organization and Retrieval of Information from Sentences
Anderson, Richard C. – Journal of Verbal Learning and Verbal Behavior, 1972
During research reported here, the author held a Fulbright-Hayes Fellowship. (VM)

Inhibition in Recall with Extralist "Cues"
Watkins, Michael – Journal of Verbal Learning and Verbal Behavior, 1975
Examines the inhibition of recall of list items when extralist items are introduced, and describes experiments which suggest that this is an expression of a more general inhibition phenomenon. (Author/AM)

Retrieval Cues and Release from Proactive Inhibition
And Others; Gardiner, John M. – Journal of Verbal Learning and Verbal Behavior, 1972
Research supported in part by a Science Research Council Postgraduate Award to John Gardiner and a Medical Research Council Grant to Fergus Craik. (VM)

Word-Nonword Classification Time
Whaley, C. P. – Journal of Verbal Learning and Verbal Behavior, 1978
Given the currently numerous applications of word-nonword classification tasks in psychological research, the present study was designed to determine the relative influences of a large number of potentially important variables on response time in tasks of this sort. (Author/NCR)
