Nota editorial

  • A retrieval-induced forgetting experiment includes the following phases (Anderson et al., 1994). Participants first study, for example, word pairs, each consisting of the noun and an exemplar of a semantic category (examples: “Fruits-Orange“ “Fruits-Apple“, “Drinks-Whisky“). After the study phase, participants are asked to remember half of the exemplars from half of the categories (retrieval practice phase). To do this, they are presented with the name of a category and the first two letters of a choice of exemplars ("Orange", but not "Apple", for example), three times each. After a distraction task, participants are asked to remember all studied words, with the category name still serving as a cue. The final recall thus concerns three types of exemplars: those reviewed in the practiced categories in the second phase of the experiment (Rp+ items, such as "Fruits-Orange"), those associated with the practiced categories but without the benefit of additional retrieval trials (Rp-, such as "Fruits-Apple"), and finally those associated with the unpracticed categories presented only once during the study phase (Nrp, for example, "Drinks-Whisky). The results indicate that participants recall Rp+ words ("Orange") significantly better than the Nrp words ("Whisky"). The latter were recalled even better than Rp- words ("Apple").
