Godden and Baddeley
Evaluation
- The study took place in a real
life setting and so had greater
ecological validity than
laboratory research
- The procedure in learning
unrelated words is not an
everyday and so lacks
mundane realism
- The study's conclusions have been
reinforced by others e.g. Abernathy who
found that learning and recall in the same
classroom improves memory
- The study has practical
applications for education
advising students to improve
recall by reinstating the
learning context for exams
- It can also be used to help police
investigations by getting them to
interview witnesses in the same
environment to the event they saw
- There was a lack of
control over some of the
procedure such as
equipment failure which
could have effected the
results
- This lack of control such as
over weather conditions
makes it improbable that the
study could be replicated
and get the same results
- The sample were all
from the same diving
club which might
affect generalisabiltiy
