Department of Psychological Sciences, Purdue University, West Lafayette, IN 47907 2081, USA
Psychol Sci 19:176-80. 2008..Survival processing yielded the best retention, which suggests that it may be one of the best encoding procedures yet discovered in the memory field... - The mnemonic effects of recall on immediate retentionJames S Nairne
Department of Psychological Sciences, Purdue University, West Lafayette, Indiana 47907 2081, USA
Mem Cognit 35:191-9. 2007..When participants initially recalled an item immediately preceding the target, target recall improved. This pattern of results places constraints on current models of immediate retention... - Adaptive memory: survival processing enhances retentionJames S Nairne
Department of Psychological Sciences, Purdue University, West Lafayette, IN 47907, USA
J Exp Psychol Learn Mem Cogn 33:263-73. 2007..These findings suggest that memory systems are "tuned" to remember information that is processed for fitness, perhaps as a result of survival advantages accrued in the past... - The myth of the encoding-retrieval matchJames S Nairne

Annu Rev Psychol 53:53-81. 2002..Increasingly, researchers are recognizing that short-term retention is cue driven, much like long-term memory, and that neither rehearsal nor decay is likely to explain the particulars of short-term forgetting... - Reversing the phonological similarity effectJ S Nairne

Mem Cognit 27:45-53. 1999..The results are interpreted from a general discrimination framework: Items are viewed as occupying positions in a multidimensional space defined by list and within-list dimensions... - von Restorff revisited: isolation, generation, and memory for orderM R Kelley

J Exp Psychol Learn Mem Cogn 27:54-66. 2001..Implications of these results for general theoretical accounts of isolation effects in memory are discussed. A simplified version of the feature model (J.

Purdue University, West Lafayette, Indiana 47907-1364, USA
Psychon Bull Rev 9:389-93. 2002..In addition, they show that whereas recall of critical words is reduced by the presence of cues at test, retrieval cues do not affect critical words and studied words in exactly the same manner... - Remembering the forgotten?

Department of Psychology, Lake Forest College, Illinois 60045, USA
Q J Exp Psychol A 56:577-99. 2003..Although net performance dropped across tests, participants did show reliable order recovery (reminiscence) between tests. The implications of these data for general theories of hypermnesia and order are discussed...
