Context-dependent repetition effects on recognition memory.
One widely acknowledged way to improve our memory performance is to repeatedly study the to be learned material. One aspect that has received little attention in past research regards the context sensitivity of this repetition effect, that is whether the item is repeated within the same or within different contexts. The predictions of a neuro-computational model (O'Reilly & Norman, 2002) were t...
متن کاملContext Repetition Benefits are Dependent on Context Redundancy
What sources of statistical information do humans leverage to organize the mental lexicon? Recently, accounts emphasizing the importance of word frequency have been challenged by accounts emphasizing contextual diversity (CD). The latter suggest that words will be processed faster if they occur in a greater number of unique semantic contexts. Previous corpus studies have operationalized CD by c...
متن کاملThe Effects of Repeated Sequential Context on Recognition Memory
Many people have had the experience of knowing what song will play next on an album (even one heard only a few times). Conversely, many people fail to recognize an acquaintance encountered in an unfamiliar context. Associations can likely form simply because items appear nearby in time, and not only due to semantic similarity. Using surprise recognition testing, we examine the automatic storage...
متن کاملSentence context, word recognition, and repetition blindness.
When the sentence She ran her best time yet in the rice last week is displayed using rapid serial visual presentation, viewers sometimes misread rice as race (M. C. Potter, A. Moryadas, I. Abrams, & A. Noel, 1993). Seven experiments combined misreading and repetition blindness (RB) paradigms to determine whether misreading of a word because of biasing sentence context represents a genuine perce...
متن کاملContext-dependent similarity effects in letter recognition
In visual word recognition tasks, digit primes that are visually similar to letter string targets (e.g., 4/A, 8/B) are known to facilitate letter identification relative to visually dissimilar digits (e.g., 6/A, 7/B); in contrast, with letter primes, visual similarity effects have been elusive. In the present study we show that the visual similarity effect with letter primes can be made to come...
