Decision-Making Models of Remember-Know Judgments: Comment on Rotello, Macmillan, and Reeder (2004)
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Murdock, Bennet – Psychological Review, 2006
The sum-difference theory of remembering and knowing (STREAK) provides a sophisticated account of many interactions in the remember-know (R-K) area (C. M. Rotello, N. A. Macmillan, & J. A. Reeder, 2004; see record 2004-15929-002). It assumes 2 orthogonal strength dimensions and oblique criterion planes. Another dual-process model (J. T. Wixted…

A Layered Network Model of Associative Learning: Learning to Learn and Configuration.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Kehoe, E. James – Psychological Review, 1988
A detailed description of a layered network model is provided, with computer simulations of key associative learning phenomena and predictions generated from the model. The model is compared to more conventional theories of learning to learn and configural learning. (SLD)

Recognition and Retrieval Processes in Free Recall
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Anderson, John R.; Bower, Gordon H. – Psychological Review, 1972
Article describes two processes in free recall: a retrieval process and a recognition process. Experiments confirmed the predicted dissociation of recognition and retrieval. (Author/ML)

Chunking and Consolidation: A Theoretical Synthesis of Semantic Networks, Configuring in Conditioning, S-R versus Cognitive Learning, Normal Forgetting, the Amnesic Syndrome, and the Hippocampal Arousal System.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Wickelgren, Wayne A. – Psychological Review, 1979
Horizontal vs vertical associative memory is defined. Vertical associative memory involves chunking--specifying new nodes representing combinations of old nodes. Chunking is the basis of semantic memory and cognitive learning. The hippocampal (limbic) arousal system is critical to the chunking process; its disruption produces the amnesic syndrome.…

Chunking and Consolidation: A Theoretical Synthesis of Semantic Networks, Configuring in Conditioning, S--R Versus Cognitive Learning, Normal Forgetting, the Amnesic Syndrome, and the Hippocampal Arousal System.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Wickelgren, Wayne A. – Psychological Review, 1979
The relationship between current information processing and prior associative theories of human and animal learning, memory, and amnesia are discussed. The paper focuses on the two components of the amnesic syndrome, retrograde amnesia and anterograde amnesia. A neural theory of chunking and consolidation is proposed. (Author/RD)
