This study inquires whether retroactive interference (RI) from learning multiple word lists can be altered through mnemonic strategies The Ss learned five successive hsts of 20 words each by associating the words with 20 conceptual pegs via visual imagery Some Ss were instructed to visuahze the words from the successive hsts in entirely new associative scenes; other Ss were to incorporate the c...

Low students’ learning outcomes and retention are among the problems in learning. An innovation process is thus needed to solve problems. The effect of Preview, Question, Read, Reflect, Recite, Review Read (PQ4R) model integrated with a mnemonic-based module one useful alternatives overcome This study aims address question on how integration between PQ4R affects retention. used an experimental ...

This paper attempts to answer the question of what defines mnemonic confabulation vis-à-vis genuine memory. The two extant accounts of mnemonic confabulation as "false memory" and as ill-grounded memory are shown to be problematic, for they cannot account for the possibility of veridical confabulation, ill-grounded memory, and well-grounded confabulation. This paper argues that the defining cha...

in this paper, the nonlinear free vibrations of thin symmetric and non-symmetric cross-ply composite plates subjected to biaxial initial stresses are investigated. because of their excellent properties such as specific strength and specific stiffness, composite plates have wide applications in aerospace and mechanical structures. based on von-karman's strain-displacement relations and using gal...

The Method of Loci (MOL) is a mnemonic strategy to memorize declarative knowledge. In the late 90s researchers started to experimentally analyze the MOL by providing their participants a virtual world. This digital environment was meant to serve the users as a template for their personal memory palace. Past studies differed in central aspects of their experimental design. One difference is that...
