Depth of processing and interference effects in the learning and remembering of sentences.

Year: 1978

Type: article

Abstract: In two experiments, subjects who completed the last words of sentences they read learned more than subjects who simply read whole sentences.This facilitation was observed even with a list of sentences which were almost always completed with the wrong words.However, proactive interference attributable to acquisition errors appeared on recall and recognition tests administered after a one-week interval.
