A spreading activation theory of memory.

TL;DR: The ACT theory of factual memory as mentioned in this paper states that information is encoded in an all-or-none manner into cognitive units and the strength of these units increases with practice and decays with delay.
Journal ArticleDOI

A model for interference and forgetting

TL;DR: In this article, a new model for interference and forgetting is presented based on the Raaijmakers and Shiffrin search of associative memory (SAM) theory for retrieval from long-term memory.
Journal ArticleDOI

Remindings and their effects in learning a cognitive skill.

TL;DR: Experimental demonstration of remindings during the early phase of learning and examines their effect on performance, including the facilitation effect found when the study and test examples had the same content, as predicted.
Journal ArticleDOI

Working Memory Capacity and Suppression

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined whether a relationship exists between an individual's working memory capacity and their ability to suppress intrusive thoughts and behaviors and found that individuals who scored high on a measure of working memory capacities (high spans) produced fewer first-list intrusions during second-list learning than did low spans.

Human Associative Memory

TL;DR: In this paper, a theory about human memory, about how a person encodes, retains, and retrieves information from memory, was proposed and tested, based on the HAM theory.
Book

Language, Memory, and Thought

TL;DR: In this article, a theory about human cognitive functioning, a set of experiments testing that theory, and a review of some of the literature relevant to the theory are presented, embodied in a computer simulation model called ACT.

Mechanisms of Skill Acquisition and the Law of Practice

TL;DR: In this article, both experimental and theoretical approaches are employed in an investigation of the mechanisms underlying the performance improvement that occurs in practice, and it is argued that a single law, the power of law of practice, adequately describes all of the practice data.
Book

Principles of Learning and Memory

TL;DR: Roediger and Nairne as discussed by the authors discuss the effects of repetition on memory and the organization of memory in free recall, and the effect of repeated speech in short-term memory.
