This paper describes and evaluates explanations offered by these theories to account for the effect of extralist cuing, facilitation of recall of list items by nonlist items.Abstract:
Recent changes in prctheorclical orientation toward problems of human memory have brought with them a concern with retrieval processes, and a number of early versions of theories of retrieval have been constructed. This paper describes and evaluates explanations offered by these theories to account for the effect of extralist cuing, facilitation of recall of list items by nonlist items. Experiments designed to test the currently most popular theory of retrieval, the generation-recognition theory, yielded results incompatible not only with generation-recognition models, but most other theories as well: under certain conditions subjects consistently failed to recognize many recallable list words. Several tentative explanations of this phenomenon of recognition failure were subsumed under the encoding specificity principle according to which the memory trace of an event and hence the properties of effective retrieval cue are determined by the specific encoding operations performed by the system on the input stimuli.read more

Transfer-appropriate processing (TAP)
TL;DR: In this paper, the TAP principle was employed in a more specific manner in order to more precisely assess the relations between the processing engaged during first exposure and that engaged during second exposure to items, and 13 experiments used a two-phase, cross-task design in which participants engaged in different combinations of seven specific intentional tasks between Phase 1 and Phase 2.

Opportunistic Planning: Being Reminded of Pending Goals
TL;DR: This research focuses on when and how pending goals are recognized in everyday planning situations and offers a predictive encoding model of goal representation, which provides evidence for the predictive encode model and suggests ways to facilitate the later recognition of opportunities for satisfying pending goals.

The effects of payoffs and prior probabilities on indices of performance and cutoff location in recognition memory
Alice F. Healy,Michael Kubovy +1 more
TL;DR: It is shown that d’ remains the preferred index of performance and that the corrections for guessing are not criterion-free measures, as well as alternative explanations for conservative cutoff placement.

Prediction and memory: A predictive coding account.
TL;DR: The hippocampus is involved in both memory recall and online prediction, and within a predictive coding framework, opposing hippocampal-neocortical interactions accompany recall and prediction.

Frame-of-reference training and cognitive categorization: an empirical investigation of rater memory issues.
Lorne M. Sulsky,David V. Day +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of frame-of-reference (FOR) training on raters' ability to correctly classify ratee performance as well as their ability to recognize previously observed behaviors were examined.

Levels of processing: A framework for memory research
TL;DR: This paper reviewed the evidence for multistore theories of memory and pointed out some difficulties with the approach and proposed an alternative framework for human memory research in terms of depth or levels of processing.

TL;DR: In this paper, the notion of a collective unconscious was introduced as a theory of remembering in social psychology, and a study of remembering as a study in Social Psychology was carried out.
