Memory research has shown impaired recall performance when a subset of the studied stimuli is presented at recall (the part-list cueing effect, Slamecka, 1968) or when the recall is collaborative (collaborative-inhibition effect, Weldon & Bellinger, 1997). In two experiments we explore these effects in an impression-formation context and compare two prominent accounts (retrieval blocking versus strategy disrupt...
More than twenty five years after the beginning of research on spontaneous trait inferences (Winter & Uleman, 1984) an intriguing paradox in the impression formation literature remains: if traits are spontaneously inferred, why aren't they used to organize behavioral information and thereby facilitate recall under memory instructions (Hamilton, Katz, & Leirer, 1980)7 We hypothesized that organization by traits ...
The present research distinguishes two different retrieval modes: exhaustive and heuristic retrieval. Whereas exhaustive retrieval is elemental and retrieves specific memory traces, the output of heuristic retrieval is a memory composite. Different memory tasks depend upon these two retrieval modes in various degrees. Using a part-list cueing paradigm, we found a dissociation: providing part-list cues hindered ...
O presente artigo apresenta um novo modelo de memória de pessoas e grupos – o Modelo TRAP (Twofold Retrieval by Associative Pathways). O Modelo TRAP foi primordialmente desenvolvimento para resolver a aparente discrepância entre efeitos de congruência tipicamente obtidos em medidas de julgamento e de incongruência tipicamente obtidos em medidas de recordação livre. O Modelo distingue entre dois modos de recuper...
