TLDR
The experiments reported here address the empirical question of how will your memory be affected by the number of related events experienced in the same context within the theoretical framework of relational and item-specific information.Citations

Human learning and memory.

TL;DR: There has been an increasing acceptance of the idea that mental models are constructed and stored in memory in addition to, rather than instead of, memorial representations that are more closely tied to perceptions.

Using Advertising Alliances for New Product Introduction: Interactions between Product Complementarity and Promotional Strategies:
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigate the effectiveness of advertising alliances (in which two brands from different product categories are featured together in an advertisement) for introducing new product categories, and show that they can improve the performance of advertising.

Elaborating on Elaboration: The Distinction between Relational and Item-specific Elaboration
TL;DR: The authors examines the distinction between and the effects of two different types of elaboration on various indicators of ad effectiveness, such as item-specific and relational processing, and shows that recall of ad claims is enhanced when manipulations foster both types simultaneously.

Recollections of faces: remembering differences and knowing similarities.
TL;DR: Components of recollective experience were investigated and recognition of appearance-changed faces was based on feelings of familiarity, rather than on explicit recollection, which supports the dual-component notion of recognition but is inconsistent with the idea that dissociations between remembering and knowing merely reflect differences in conceptual and perceptual processing.

How does knowledge promote memory? The distinctiveness theory of skilled memory
TL;DR: This paper proposed the distinctiveness theory of skilled memory, which states that knowledge improves memory not only through improved organizational processing but also through more effective processing of differences between items in the context of the similarity defined by organization.

Features of Similarity
TL;DR: The metric and dimensional assumptions that underlie the geometric representation of similarity are questioned on both theoretical and empirical grounds and a set of qualitative assumptions are shown to imply the contrast model, which expresses the similarity between objects as a linear combination of the measures of their common and distinctive features.

Recall of previously unrecallable information following a shift in perspective
TL;DR: This paper read a story about two boys playing hooky from school from the perspective of either a burglar or a person interested in buying a home and found that the instruction to take a new perspective led subjects to invoke a schema that provided implicit cues for different categories of story information.

Relational and item-specific information in memory
R. Reed Hunt,Gilles O. Einstein +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a distinction between relational and item-specific information is made between the two types of information, based on the reported superior recall of relational information when both kinds of information are encoded.
Journal ArticleDOI
Component-levels theory of the effects of spacing of repetitions on recall and recognition.
TL;DR: A theory of spacing effects is described that uses the same principles to account for both facilitatory and inhibitory effects of spacing in a number of memory paradigms.
