Effects on a Later Recall by Delaying Initial Recall
Modigliani, Vito – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Learning and Memory, 1976
Attempts to define the relationships between four measures of recall in a two-recall task, namely (a) initial short-term recall (STR), (b) unconditional final free recall (FFR), (c) final free recall conditionalized on an initial successful recall (FFR/STR), and (d) final free recall conditionalized on an unsuccessful recall (FFR/STR).

The Effect of Arousal on Short- and Long-Term Memory
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Lavach, John F. – Journal of Educational Research, 1973
This study examined the relationship between arousal and short- versus long-term memory of auditorally presented continuous information as would be experienced in a typical classroom lecture environment. (Author/RK)

Some Necessary Conditions for Producing Reinstatement Effects in Children
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Choi, Kyoung; Hoving, Kenneth L. – Developmental Psychology, 1972

Reinstatement Effects in Children
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
And Others; Hoving, Kenneth L. – Developmental Psychology, 1972
Aim of this experiment was to determine whether the increased retention of early learned behavior in animals might also be operable in children. (Authors/MB)

The Absence of Interference Effects in Preschool Children's Picture Recognition
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Scott, Marcia S. – Journal of Genetic Psychology, 1973

Sequential Memory for Familiar and Unfamiliar Forms
Del Castillo, David M.; Gumenik, William E. – Journal of Experimental Psychology, 1972
Results are consistent with the hypothesis that sequential memory is dependent upon the availability of a verbal memory code. (Authors)

Acquisition and Forgetting of Hierarchically Organized Information in Long-Term Memory
Nelson, Thomas O.; Smith, Edward E. – Journal of Experimental Psychology, 1972
Both acquisition and retention were better when the hierarchy was learned graphically rather than as a list of associations, although the effect was greater on acquisition than on retention. (Authors)

Locus of Thematic Effects in Retention of Prose
Dooling, D. James; Mullet, Rebecca L. – Journal of Experimental Psychology, 1973
Results show that the theme of a story can be used as a mnemonic device to improve recall. To be effective, the theme must be available to S for encoding during input. (Authors)

Retention-Task Carryover Effects After Verbal-Discrimination Learning
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
And Others; Kanak, N. Jack – American Journal of Psychology, 1972
Results of the three experiments provided little evidence that the scores on associative matching were adversely affected by prior performance on any of the three modified free-recall tasks. (Authors)

Robbins, Donald; Wise, Phillip S. – Journal of Experimental Psychology, 1972
Article deals with an encoding variability view of retention. (Authors)
