Retention of foreign vocabulary learned using the keyword method: A ten-year follow-up
This article assesses one individual's level of recall for foreign vocabulary learned ten years previously using the keyword method. Without any revision at all, he remembered 35% of the test words with spelling fully correct and over 50% with only very minor errors of spelling. After 10 minutes spent looking at a vocabulary list, recall increased to 65% and 76% respectively. After a period of revision lasting a further 11⁄2 hours, recall was vir…

Interest, knowledge and the memorizing of soccer scores
The memorizing of new soccer scores was examined in two experiments. In Expt 1, a very high correlation between the recall of scores and performance on a soccer knowledge questionnaire occurred only for real scores. For simulated scores the correlation was barely significant. However, free recall of a word list correlated highly with memory for simulated scores, but not with recall of real scores or questionnaire scores. The specific processes un…
Football knowledge and the acquisition of new results
Performance on a football knowledge questionnaire correlated very highly ( r = 0·81) with the number of football scores correctly recalled immediately following their broadcast. This better acquistion by football enthusiasts did not result from knowledgeable guessing, since correct prior predictions of the results did not correlate significantly with the questionnaire. Football enthusiasts showed especially good recall of the English First Divisi…

Some Correlates of Rated Memorability of Sentences
This study examines the effect of instruction to generate memorable as opposed to grammatical sentences from letter strings of varying lengths. Results indicate that the effect of instruction is limited, but where it proves effective higher rated Memorability is associated with higher rated Sentence Simplicity and Positive Affect. Correlations between the characteristics examined in the study and Memorability fail to reveal any relationship betwe…
Semantic and Acoustic Coding in Short- and Long-Term Memory
This paper considers the evidence for semantic processing in STM. It is concluded that there is sufficient evidence of semantic processing in STM to make it impossible to dichotomize between long- and short-term memory on the basis of semantic coding being exclusively employed by long-term memory
Theoretical Note: Logical Objections to a Dichotomous Theory of Memory
