Using the criteria defined by Hasher and Zacks [Hasher, L., & Zacks, R. T. (1979). Automatic and effortful processes in memory. Journal of Experimental Psychology: General, 108(3), 356-388], three studies examined the effects of intent of memorization, dual task interference, old age, practice and individual differences on memory for egocentric positions. Results showed that dual task interfere...

Red currant is a valuable berry crop. The assortment improved through the selection of new varieties. In Russian Research Institute Fruit Crop Breeding (Russia), breeding work for red has been carried out since 1984. ‘Heinemanns Rote Spatlese’ variety, selected in Germany 1942 by crossing Prince Albert variety with Andenken an Lorgus (type multiflowered - Ribes multiflorum Kit. ex Schult.), was...

In this note, we propose a modification of Steffensen's method with some free parameters. These parameters are then be used for further acceleration via the concept of with memorization. In this way, we derive a fast Steffensen-type method with memory for solving nonlinear equations. Numerical results are also given to support the underlying theory of the article.  

The present experimental research examined whether framing early adolescents' (11- to 12-year-olds) learning activity in terms of the attainment of an extrinsic (i.e., physical attractiveness) versus intrinsic (i.e., health) goal and communicating these different goal contents in an internally controlling versus autonomy-supportive way affect performance. Both conceptual and rote learning were ...

Whereas the adverse consequences of rote stress are well substantiated for most occupational groups, the relationship between this phenomenon and other job-related factors in accountants has received relatively less attention. The limited past research involving accountants has either excluded female accountants or failed to report data by sex. Moreover, previous research has largely excluded a...

The zero input future behaviour of a dynamical system is determined by its initial state or initial function. For nontrivial regulatory systems involving adoption, learning, specialization, differentiation that corresponds to the memorization of initial information. In this work, we studied neutrally stable systems involving delays, under aspect of memorization. In particular we showed that tho...
