Document Summary

Psyb57 chapter 6: interconnections between acquisition and retrieval. When you are learning, you are making connections between newly acquired material and other representations already in your memory. The connections help because they make knowledge findable later on: they serve as retrieval paths. Retrieval paths have a start point and an end point. Pattern of data in which materials learned in one setting are remembered when the person returns to that setting but less remembered in another setting. In an experiment, half of the participants learned test material while on land and other half learned while underwater. Within each group, half were tested while underwater and half were tested on land. A retrieval advantage is expected that divers who learned material while underwater will remember the material best if they"re again underwater at the time of the test. Another study showed that those who read an article in quiet did best if tested in quiet and vice versa.
