Chunking, Rule Learning, and Multiple Item Memory in Rat Interleaved Serial Pattern Learning

Peer reviewed

Direct link

Fountain, Stephen B.; Benson, Don M., Jr. – Learning and Motivation, 2006

Nonhuman animals, like humans, appear sensitive to the structure of the elements of sequences, perhaps even when the structure relates nonadjacent elements. In the present study, we examined the contribution of chunking, rule learning, and item memory when rats learned serial patterns composed of two interleaved subpatterns. In one group, the…

TODAM2: A Model for the Storage and Retrieval of Item, Associative, and Serial-Order Information.

Peer reviewed

Murdock, Bennet B. – Psychological Review, 1993

This article presents an extended version of the convolution-correlation memory model TODAM (theory of distributed associative memory) that eliminates some inadequacies of previous versions and provides a unified treatment of item, associative, and serial-order information. TODAM2 extends the chunking model to provide a general model for episodic…

Contextual Associations and Memory for Serial Position

Block, R. A.; Summers, J. J. – Journal of Experimental Psychology, 1973

Purpose of experiment was to provide evidence for the role of contextual associations in memory for serial position because position judgments are affected by factors other than those correlated by time. (DS)

Memory for Serial Position

Saufley, William H., Jr. – Journal of Verbal Learning and Verbal Behavior, 1975

Two experiments tested what happens to learning performance as serial location of a word list is removed as a consistent source of associations across trials. Serial recall produced a stable level of performance and little learning. Serial recall learning may require certain memory factors in combination. (CHK)

Network Strength Theory of Storage and Retrieval Dynamics

Peer reviewed

Wickelgren, Wayne A. – Psychological Review, 1976

The notion of strength is defined in several alternative ways for chains of associations connected in series and in parallel. Network strength theory is extended to handle retrieval dynamics for a network of associations, in a manner that permits various degrees of serial versus parallel manner that permits various degrees of serial versus…

The Composition of Episodic Memory.

PDF pending restoration

Underwood, Benton J.; And Others – 1977

This study examined the interrelationships among a number of episodic memory tasks and among various attributes of memory. A sample of 200 college students was tested for ten sessions; 28 different measures of episodic memory were obtained. In addition, five measures of semantic memory were available. Results indicated that episodic and semantic…

Implications of Research on Internal Processing Operations in Learning and Memory for Serial Task Training.

Download full text

Rigney, Joseph W. – 1971

The literature on learning research pertaining to the internal processing operations of the learner was reviewed. The current thinking of learning theorists regarding the nature and importance of these processes in learning and retention is described, and their significance for instructional technology is examined. Verbalization, imagery, and…
