Episodic memory reflects the ability to recollect the temporal and spatial context of past
experiences. Episodic memories depend on the hippocampus but have been proposed to …

We present a review of global matching models of recognition memory, describing their
theoretical origins and fundamental assumptions, focusing on two defining properties:(1) …

Practicing retrieval is a powerful way to promote learning and long-term retention. This
chapter addresses the theoretical underpinnings of retrieval-based learning. We review …

The principles of recency and contiguity are two cornerstones of the theoretical and
empirical analysis of human memory. Recency has been alternatively explained by …

In memory, our continuous experiences are broken up into discrete events. Boundaries
between events are known to influence the temporal organization of memory. However, how …

In immediate free recall, words recalled successively tend to come from nearby serial
positions. MJ Kahana (see record 1996-93836-009) documented this effect and showed that …

A new model for interference and forgetting is presented. The model is based on the
Raaijmakers and Shiffrin search of associative memory (SAM) theory for retrieval from long …

The authors present a new model of free recall on the basis of MW Howard and MJ
Kahana's (see record 2002-17325-002) temporal context model and M. Usher and JL …

In this article we review the framework proposed in 1968 by Atkinson and Shiffrin. We
discuss the prior context that led to its production, including the advent of cognitive and …

We tested the predictions of 2 explanations for retrieval-based learning; while the
elaborative retrieval hypothesis assumes that the retrieval of studied information promotes …
