Event congruency enhances episodic memory encoding through semantic elaboration and relational binding.
Behavioral research consistently shows that congruous events, that is, events whose constituent elements match along some specific dimension, are better remembered than incongruous events. Although it has been speculated that this "congruency subsequent memory effect" (cSME) results from enhanced semantic elaboration, empirical evidence for this account is lacking. Here, we report a set of beha...
متن کاملThe Effect of Using Visual Aids, Semantic Elaboration, and Visual Aids plus Semantic Elaboration on Iranian Learners' Vocabulary Learning
This study investigated the effect of using visual aids, semantic elaboration, and visual aids plus semantic elaboration on the Iranian EFL learners' vocabulary learning. To conduct the study, the researchers assigned 49 elementary learners to three homogeneous groups according to their proficiency level. Then, a pre-test of Paribakht and Wesche's Vocabulary Knowledge Scale was given to each gr...
متن کاملAutomatic Semantic Activation and Episodic Memory Encoding
An experiment was conducted to investigate the influence of a briefly presented patternmasked stimulus on (1) subjects' latency'to make a lexical decision regarding a subsequent letter string and (2) their episodic encoding of that letter string in long-term memory. During the first half of the experiment subjects participated in a primed lexical decision task (LDT). Half of the subjects receiv...
متن کاملWhen Does Semantic Similarity Help Episodic Retrieval?
Free recall illustrates the spontaneous organization of memory. This organization comes in two forms: the temporal organization of the list and the semantic relations among list items. With estimates of semantic similarity provided by latent semantic analysis (LSA, T. K. Landauer and S. Dumais, 1997), we simultaneously assessed the effects of temporal and semantic factors on output order in del...
متن کاملThe Role of Left Ventrolateral Prefrontal Cortex during Episodic Decisions: Semantic Elaboration or Resolution of Episodic Interference?
Context memory retrieval tasks often implicate the left ventrolateral pFC (LVPFC) during functional imaging. Although this region has been linked to controlled semantic processing of materials, it may also play a more general role in selecting among competing episodic representations during demanding retrieval tasks. Thus, the LVPFC response during context memory retrieval may reflect either se...
