C. J. Brainerd; M. Chang; D. M. Bialer; X. Liu – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2024
We report the first evidence that the gist mechanism of fuzzy-trace theory and the associative mechanism of activation monitoring theory operate in parallel, in the recall version of the Deese/Roediger/McDermott illusion. In three experiments, we implemented a new methodology that allows their respective empirical indexes, gist strength (GS) and…

Mayra Stefany Torres-Munares; Ada Cristina Hurtado-Flores; Ernesto Adolfo Carrera-Salas – Cogent Education, 2024
College students often face difficulties managing their time due to a lack of basic organizational skills. The research proposes the implementation of a mobile application to improve time management based on gamification as a solution to promote compliance with academic activities. For the correct development of these academic activities, the SOAR…

Kao, Tina; Jensen, Greg; Michaelcheck, Charlotte; Ferrera, Vincent P.; Terrace, Herbert S. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2020
Does serial learning result in specific associations between pairs of items, or does it result in a cognitive map based on relations of all items? In 2 experiments, we trained human participants to learn various lists of photographic images. We then tested the participants on new lists of photographic images. These new lists were constructed by…

Cho, Kit W.; Neely, James H.; Brennan, Michael K.; Vitrano, Deana; Crocco, Stephanie – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2017
Carpenter (2011) argued that the testing effect she observed for semantically related but associatively unrelated paired associates supports the mediator effectiveness hypothesis. This hypothesis asserts that after the cue-target pair "mother-child" is learned, relative to restudying mother-child, a review test in which…

Morais, Ana Sofia; Olsson, Henrik; Schooler, Lael J. – Cognitive Science, 2013
Aggregating snippets from the semantic memories of many individuals may not yield a good map of an individual's semantic memory. The authors analyze the structure of semantic networks that they sampled from individuals through a new snowball sampling paradigm during approximately 6 weeks of 1-hr daily sessions. The semantic networks of individuals…

Reinitz, Mark Tippens; Peria, William J.; Seguin, Julie Anne; Loftus, Geoffrey R. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2011
Participants studied naturalistic pictures presented for varying brief durations and then received a recognition test on which they indicated whether each picture was old or new and rated their confidence. In 1 experiment they indicated whether each "old"/"new" response was based on memory for a specific feature in the picture…
