A Comparison of Forgetting in an Implicit and Explicit Memory Task

摘要: Among possible criteria for distinguishing separate memory systems implicit and explicit is that of substantial differences in either the form or rate forgetting. Prior literature has claimed both differential forgetting equivalent tasks. Existing experimental data word-stem completion control tasks were reviewed shown to be inconclusive. Our experiments measure comparable stem cued recall. The are essentially same these Levels processing task conditions differ only level initial learning availability. Thus, reflect traces system they different have identical dynamics.
