Shono, Yusuke; Edwards, Michael C.; Ames, Susan L.; Stacy, Alan W. – Developmental Psychology, 2018
Indirect tests of memory associations relevant to cannabis have been shown to be useful in explaining and predicting adolescent cannabis use habits. This study sought to increase the understanding of adolescent cannabis-related associative memory and cannabis use behavior over time. A longitudinal sample of alternative high school students (N =…

Hutchison, Keith A.; Heap, Shelly J.; Neely, James H.; Thomas, Matthew A. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2014
Participants completed a battery of 3 attentional control (AC) tasks (OSPAN, antisaccade, and Stroop, as in Hutchison, 2007) and performed a lexical decision task with symmetrically associated (e.g., "sister-brother") and asymmetrically related primes and targets presented in both the forward (e.g., "atom-bomb") and backward…

Bouwmeester, Samantha; Verkoeijen, Peter P. J. L. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: General, 2010
The present study aimed at testing theoretical predictions of the fuzzy-trace theory about true and false recognition. The effects of semantic relatedness and study opportunity on true and false recognition of words from Deese, Roediger, McDermott lists (J. Deese, 1959; D. R. Read, 1996; H. L. Roediger & K. B. McDermott, 1995) were evaluated…

This study examines interrelationships among several episodic memory tasks, particularly correlations among various attributes of memory: imagery, associative, acoustic, temporal, affective, and frequency. Undergraduates completed 28 episodic memory tests using tasks such as free recall, paired associates, classical recognition, and memory span.…

Masson, Michael E. J. – 1978
A battery of memory tests was administered to 243 male university students. Factor analysis with oblique rotation of factors revealed five factors: (1) associative memory (particularly important in paired-associate tests), (2) short-term visual memory (the ability to derive information from briefly presented visual displays), (3) meaningful memory…

Hunter, David R. – 1975
It may be possible, using assessments of motor and perceptual skills which are largely independent of ethnic and educational background, to admit to the military individuals who would be rejected on the basis of their paper-and-pencil test scores, but who through their performance on non-verbal measures, can be identified as highly likely to…
