Brainerd, C. J.; And Others
Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, v55 n3 p353-73 Jun 1993
Evaluates two competing explanations for the phenomenon of cognitive triage, or the fact that easy-to-retrieve memories do not come to mind before hard-to-retrieve memories during recall. Reports experimental results that support an optimization model of recall rather than an effortful-processing model. (PAM)
