In two experiments, subjects were instructed either to remember or to forget each word.
Following study, two tests were given, one a direct test of memory requiring conscious …

Four experiments were conducted in support of a role for memory retrieval inhibition in
directed forgetting. In each experiment, subjects were presented a list of words, some of …

Directed forgetting has been studied by instructing Ss to forget either (1) an initial list or (2)
individually selected words. Differential encoding was hypothesized to be responsible for …

Three experiments investigated the effect of testing for recall on forgetting. One experiment
demonstrated that the effect of testing is restricted to the items tested. A second experiment …

Retrieval practice with particular items from memory can impair the recall of related items on
a later memory test. This retrieval-induced forgetting effect has been ascribed to inhibitory …

Retrieval practice with particular items in memory may result in decreased recall of different,
semantically related, items. This retrieval-induced forgetting effect has been demonstrated in …

Subjects read 20 words and generated 20 others from definitions during a 40-item study
phase. Production of each word was followed by an instruction to remember or to forget that …

Abstract Investigated, in 2 experiments, long-term retention subsequent to directed
forgetting. In Exp I, with 48 undergraduates, both recognition and cued recall were better for …

Abstract University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, Urbana, Illinois It is an almost
universally accepted claim that the list-method procedure of inducing directed forgetting …

Retrieving a subset of previously studied material can impair later recognition of related
items. Using the remember-know procedure (Experiment 1) and the receiver operating …
