Each item is directly linked to the next. It became evident to researchers that the learning process was more complex, that subjects were thinking about the items and adding ideas of their own to speed up the learning. This happened even with nonsense syllables. The nonsense syllables prompted subjects to think of words and use these words to remember other nonsense syllables. Meaningfulness: how many words an item brings to mind on a free-association basis. Mediation: the process of generating words internally to form an indirect association between two items in a list. Internal Mediators For example, you may have: BAH bath  TEL towel Lists of items that are high in УmeaningfulnessФ should be memorized relatively quickly because each item brings a number of words to mind. This increases the chances that one of the words can be used as a mediator, a word that prompts the subject to think of the next item in the list. Cognitive researchers later looked at more complex forms of mediation and re-named the process coding. A code is how you represent information internally. There are many techniques people have used over the years to code information so that they can recall it more easily. Techniques that are used to improve memory by re-organizing information are called mnemonics. Mnemonics involve rules for coding information during learning and decoding it during recall. Reduction coding: transforms presented information into a smaller more manageable form without loss of any of the original information. For example, ROY G BIV represents the colors of the spectrum in their correct order, (acronym) red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet. Elaboration coding: involves adding information beyond that required to improve memory. For example, Richard Of York Gains Battles In Vain The grammatical structure and meaning of the sentence helps us remember this list of words in order. ThatТs the code. During recall, you decode the sentence by remembering the rule that the first letter of each word stands for the first letter of a color. Two kinds of elaboration coding are semantic (stories, phrases, rhymes) and visual (imagery mnemonics). Experiment by Bower and Clark on the Story Mnemonic Subjects received 12 serial lists, each consisting of 10 nouns. For each list, all of the words were presented at the same time (complete-list procedure) rather than one by one. Example: Lumberjack Dart Skate Hedge Colony Duck Furniture Stocking Pillow Mistress The Experimental group was asked to study the list by making up a story by adding words of their own while keeping the list words in their original order. The Control group was asked to Уstudy and rememberФ the list by any method they wanted. Immediately after a list was studied, a test was given on that list. After the test on the 12th list, a surprise test was given on all of the lists. The experimenter stated the first word and the subjects were asked to recite the remaining words in their original order. A response was counted as correct if it was from the list that the test was on and it was in the right serial position. On the immediate tests, both groups achieved equally high scores, 99 Ц 100%. One the delayed tests, the Experimental group did much better than the Control: 93% versus 13%. Performance on the immediate tests was influenced mainly by short-term memory, which briefly allows for accurate recall of 5 Ц 9 items even if no effort is made to memorize the items. The delayed tests reflected long-term memory, which is strongly influenced by the strategies people use to learn and remember information. Experiment by Epstein on Meaningfulness Versus Grammaticalness in Serial Verbal Learning Meaningfulness: how many words an item brings to mind on a free-association basis. Emphasized by associative tradition. Grammaticalness: the extent to which items in a list are connected to each other through grammatical relationships. Emphasized by cognitive tradition (a form of relational learning). Complete-list procedure. All items in the list were written on an index card. Subjects viewed the list for 7 seconds (study trial), then received a test trial in which they had 30 seconds to write the items in their original order. Study and test trials were presented until the subject reached a criterion of mastery: 1 test trial without an error. The more trials needed to reach this criterion, the slower was the rate of learning. Four Lists I. Low meaningfulness, high grammaticalness: A vapy koobs desaked the citar molently um glox nerfs. II. Low meaningfulness, low grammaticalness: koobs vapy the desaked um glox citar nerfs a molently III. High meaningfulness, high grammaticalness: Cruel tables sang falling circles to empty bitter pencils. IV. High meaningfulness, low grammaticalness: sang tables bitter empty cruel to circles pencils falling Results (Trials to Criterion) Meaningfulness Low High  List II  8.15  List IV 5.94 List I  5.77 List III 3.50 Measuring the Effect of the Independent Variables The effect of an independent variable is measured by calculating the difference between the means of two groups, each of which has been assigned a different level of the variable, with other variables held constant (held at the same level for both groups). Level of other variable Effect ofЕ held constant Comparison Result  Meaningfulness Low grammaticalness II-IV 2.2 Meaningfulness High grammaticalness I-III 2.3 Grammaticalness Low meaningfulness II-I 2.4 Grammaticalness High meaningfulness IV-III 2.4  Conclusion: Each variable influenced learning independently of the other variable (no interaction between variables). Items in a phrase are organized as a single group or УchunkФ, which reduces the number of units that must be memorized. In random lists, each item is a separate unit. Epstein: УЕsyntactical structure facilitated verbal learning apart from the contributions of meaningfulness, familiarity, and sequential probability.Ф PAGE  PAGE 5 Low Grammaticalness High  ]k┤╜vЙЛ╨╤#д к ┐ ╚ м ╡  ' б  4 F б в й к м н ▒ ▓ ╖ ╕ ┐ └ ┬ ├ я ў ЕЗ(6г▓mХ▌Kt┐чГДРС╠═▄▌ .!┼!╞!╠!═!╬!╨!╤!╫!╪!∙ЎЄЎЄЎЄхЎ╘═ЎЄЎЄЎЄЎЄЎ═ЎЄЎЄЎЄЎЄЎЄЎЄЎЄЎЄЎЄЎЄЎ╔ЎЄЎЄЎЄЎЄЎЄЎЄЎхЎхЎхЎхЎхЎ┬┐┬┐┬┐┬0J j0JUCJ H* CJ OJQJ jCJ OJQJUmHnHujCJ UmHnHu>*CJ CJ CJ0OJQJK01цч\]│┤()Й╨#$D E м н   а б  3 4 Н О ¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤√¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤√¤¤¤¤┼!▐!"¤¤¤О Ы ╟ ╚ ╩ ╦ 34st123K╗ў"Nxз╒/0&'▒▓a¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤abзийф'(вг\vwGH#$cfЧ╒╓CDv╕╣щ¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤щ)*+,nУГРТз│┤╛┐╦¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤ўўўўўўК─ўm$$IfЦl╓Ф@ ╓0.Х№$@ @ ╓0      Ў6╓  ╓  ╓  ╓  4╓ laЎЪ$If╦╠╫фхяЁёЄ456789:;∙∙∙∙∙МККККККККККm$$IfЦl╓Ф@ ╓0.Х№$@ @ ╓0      Ў6╓  ╓  ╓  ╓  4╓ laЎЪ$If;<=eТ▄▐$%mnop╖╕   Г Д -!.!┼!╬!╧!╨!█!¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤√ЄЁ¤ЄД№ Д&`#$╪!┘!┌!█!∙!■!"ўЁэц CJ OJQJ0J j0JU0JmHnHu█!▄!▌!▐!т!у!°!∙!■! !"""""""¤√√∙√∙√ў√√√√√√√ї# 01Рh░╨/ ░р=!░а"░а#Ра$Ра%░ i8@ё 8 NormalCJ_HaJmH sH tH 8@8 Heading 3$@& CJ0OJQJ0@0 Heading 4$@&CJ <A@Є б< Default Paragraph Font.P@Є.
