Playing for Keeps: Long‐Term Recall With an Application Using Virtual Reality and the Method of Loci
Scandinavian Journal of Psychology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Strategies that provide spatial context to study material have been successfully utilized combined with virtual 3D technology to improve memory and learning. However, research suggests that memory enhancement effects relying on visualization may be of a short‐term nature.
