The effect of information content distributions on word recollection and familiarity
2023AbstractThis study builds on work on language processing and information theory which suggests that informationally uniform, or smoother, sequences are easier to process than ones in which information arrives in clumps. Because episodic memory is a form of memory in which information is encoded within its surrounding context, we predicted that episodic

What makes folk tales unique: Content familiarity, causal structure, scripts, or superstructures?
Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 1994Requiring readers to re-order randomly ordered sentences into a coherent text significantly enhances recall relative to that in a read-only control condition for non-folk-tale texts but not for folk tales (Einstein, McDaniel, Owen, & Coté, 1990). Experiments 1-3 showed that embedding components of folk tales (e.g., causal structure, conventional ...

Receptive Grammatical Knowledge of Familiar Content Words and Inflection in 16‐Month‐Olds
Infancy, 2007This study examines 16‐month‐olds' understanding of word order and inflectional properties of familiar nouns and verbs. Infants preferred grammatical sentences over ungrammatical sentences when the ungrammaticality was cued by both misplaced inflection and word order reversal of nouns and verbs.

People can use a content-specific recapitulation strategy to trigger memories (i.e., mentally reinstating encoding conditions), but how people deploy this strategy is unclear. Is recapitulation naturally used to guide all recollection attempts, or is it only used selectively, after retrieving incomplete information that requires additional monitoring ...

Developmental understanding of means‐end contingencies: Effect of familiarity of contingency content
British Journal of Developmental Psychology, 2003Previous research has shown that when evaluating the components in a means‐end contingency, even preschool children anticipate that the end will be more appealing than the means, thereby demonstrating the ‘means‐end’ effect. We compared the responses of 5‐year‐olds, 7‐year‐olds, 9‐year‐olds and adults when evaluating the means and ends mentioned in ...

Effect of Gender – Oriented Content Familiarity and Test Type on Reading Comprehension
2011One important issue that any material or test designer should bear in mind is to be careful about developing teaching and testing reading materials which would not be to the benefit of a group of readers or examinees and to the detriment of some others.
