The advantage of specific terms over general terms as cues for sentence recall: Instantiation or retrieval? [PDF]
Memory & Cognition, 1979 Anderson et al. (1976) found that specific terms, which had not appeared in but fit the context of sentences, were better sentence recall cues than the general terms appearing in the sentences. They interpreted this as indicating that general terms in context were encoded on the basis of appropriate instantiations.

Limited generalization with varied, as compared to specific, practice in short-term motor learning
Acta Psychologica, 2018 The schema theory of learning predicts that varied training in motor learning should give rise to better transfer than specific training. For example, throwing beanbags during practice to targets 5 and 9ft away should better generalize to targets 7 and 11ft away, as compared to only throwing to a target 7ft away.
