And is later tested to see whether the info. Affects performance on another type of task. - relearning method a method for measuring retention that compares the time req. to relearn material with the time used in the initial learning of the material. - Parallel distributed processing a model of memory in which knowledge is represented as connections among thousands of interacting processing units, distributed in a vast network and all operating in parallel. - Three types of memory processes are: 1. s...
