Free recall enhances subsequent learning [PDF]
Psychonomic Bulletin & Review, 2013 Testing, or retrieval practice, has become a central topic in memory research. One potentially important effect of retrieval practice has received little attention, however: It may enhance, or potentiate, subsequent learning. We introduce a paradigm that can measure the indirect, potentiating effect of free recall tests on subsequent learning, and then

High reward makes items easier to remember, but harder to bind to a new temporal context
Frontiers in Integrative Neuroscience, 2012 Learning through reward is central to adaptive behaviour. Indeed, items are remembered better if they are experienced while participants expect a reward, and people can deliberately prioritize memory for high- over low-valued items.

Contextual variability in free recall [PDF]
Journal of Memory and Language, 2011 According to contextual-variability theory, experiences encoded at different times tend to be associated with different contextual states. The gradual evolution of context implies that spaced items will be associated with more distinct contextual states, and thus have more unique retrieval cues, than items presented in proximity.

Brain-derived neurotrophic factor Val66Met and blood glucose: a synergistic effect on memory
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2008 Age-related declines in episodic memory performance are frequently reported, but their mechanisms remain poorly understood. Although several genetic variants and vascular risk factors have been linked to mnemonic performance in general and age ...

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2016 Nocturnal sleep effects on memory consolidation following gross motor sequence learning were examined using a complex arm movement task. This task required participants to produce non-regular spatial patterns in the horizontal plane by successively ...

Richer Concepts are Better Remembered: Number of Features Effects in Free Recall
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2012 In four experiments, we tested the expectation that concepts associated with more semantic features would be better remembered than concepts associated with fewer semantic features.

Free vs unhibited recall [PDF]
Psychonomic Science, 1970 This study compared five multitrial free recalls of 20 minimally related words using two instruction conditions: Conditions, standard free recall instructions; Condition U, uninhibited recall instructions in which S s were told to emit all words occurring to them during recall.

The anatomy of free recall [PDF]
Memory & Cognition, 1974 The relative importance of various covert cues used in free recall is inferred on the basis of conditional probabilities of free recall given success vs failure of cued recall of the same material. Thirty-six names associated with pictures arranged in a 6 by 6 matrix were learned.
