Peer reviewedWeinstein, Claire E.; And Others – Educational Gerontology, 1981
Used semistructured interviews to identify memory strategies used by 35 older adults. Asked participants to describe the strategies they would use for various activities. Results indicated (1) the elderly may have limited repertoires of alternative memory strategies, and (2) the types of materials used can significantly affect their performance.…

The analysis of previously obtained data concerning short-term visual memory and cognition by a method suggested by Tucker is proposed. Although interesting individual differences undoubtedly exist in people's ability and capacity to process short-term visual information, studies have not generally examined these differences. In fact, conventional…

Peer reviewedRoss, Brian H. – Cognitive Psychology, 1984
This paper provides experimental demonstration of remindings during learning and examines their effect on performance, as well as effects of practice and difficulty. Three experiments examining the occurrence, effects, and conditions of remindings are presented, and the implications for theories of cognitive skill learning are discussed.…

This paper reports results of two retention studies. In each, tests were given some time after instruction to a class of students whose initial level of performance was quite high. Results of these studies are summarized in terms of evidence related to the following questions: (1) to what extent are performances immediately following learning…

Maitland, Anthony J. – 1970
The experiment tested the effects of presentation word orders in a multitrial free-recall task. Three types of presentation were used: (1) randomized; (2) constant order; and (3) maintained order (maintenance of subjects order of recall on the subsequent presentation). In addition, the effects of number of recalls per presentation (1 or 3) were…

Nuthall, Graham; Lee, Adrienne Alton – 1982
This report is based on interviews with a group of elementary school children about how they answered the items in an achievement test administered 12 months after a 7-week instructional unit. Data from the interviews are related to data from further pretests and posttests and from detailed observations and recordings of the original instructional…

Diggles, Virginia A. – 1979
An experiment to determine the effects of perceptual organization on learning and remembering a motor task is described. Four test groups received different methods of presentation of movements to be learned--sequential-sequential, sequential-random, random-sequential, and random-random. Analysis of variance was used to examine results. Results…
