The Nature of Semantic Savings for Items Forgotten from Long-Term Memory.
Nelson, Thomas O.; And Others
Journal of Experimental Psychology: General, v108 n2 p225-50 Jun 1979
The kind of semantic information that facilitates relearning was investigated. The paradigm consisted of three stages: (1) learn a list of number-word pairs; (2) return for a retention test; and (3) relearn a new list of pairs that have various kinds of semantic relatedness to the originally learned pairs.
