The general purpose of the present experiment was to investigate sources of the effect of pattern goodness on human performance. (Author)

Defines learning and memory and presents experimental evidence that indicates that learning and memory are chemical in nature. (JR)

Retention effects of retrieval practice and of predictability of recall delay were investigated in 2 experiments. (Editor)

Two experiments examined the role of meaningfulness (m), perceptual grouping, and organizational factors in recognition memory of consonant-vowel-consonant (CVC) trigram stimuli. (Editor)

Examines earlier studies relating to human memory, extracts estimates of parameters that appear to be crucial to performance in complex tasks, and illustrates how these parameter values predict behavior in a range of laboratory situations. (JR)

A discussion of the Selcuk Network, a scheme which achieves response routing on the basis of strictly local information, pursuant to the broadcast of a general message, it has applicability to content-based addressing and to computor-to-computer communication nets. (Author)

A procedure for controlling word encodings tested the effects on recognition memory of acoustic encoding and 2 types of semantic encoding. (Editor)

Two experiments were conducted and the results of both experiments were viewed as consistent with the hypothesis that episodic information (e.g., word pairs, word grouping) is stored separately from semantic information (categories) in long-term memory. (Editor/RK)

Author seeks to orient the adult basic education practioners to the special learning problems that confront the disadvantaged and under-educated adult. (GB)

The purpose of the present study was to investigate the nature of the processing of material for recall and recognition as a function of Ss' knowledge of mode of test in order to provide an interpretation of earlier studies. (Author/RK)

Study is concerned with the nature of context effects in recognition memory of words. It also examines the relationship between encoding techniques utilized during input and the effects of contextual variation upon subsequent recognition performance. (Author)

Studies support the hypothesis that images aroused by discreet verbal stimuli can be integrated into complex images with the result that: (a) storage capacity requirements are reduced, and (b) recall of one component of the image leads to effective redintegration of the rest. (JB)

The particular concern of this experiment was to develop a technique for the effective study of the factors that influence the buildup of proactive inhibition in short-term memory studies of the Brown-Peterson variety. (Author)
