- AIM
- To test the Cue Dependant Theory
- Can a natural environment act as a cue for recall?
- To identify whether words would be recalled best in
either same environment or in a very different one
- To test the Cue Dependant Theory
- METHOD
- 18 participants
- Both male and female
- 13 male- 5 female
- 13 male- 5 female
- University diving club (diving holiday)
- Both male and female
- Field Experiment
- Repeated Measures design
- 18 participants
- PROCEDURE
- Participants were given word lists to learn
- 36 words
- Unrelated- 2/3 syllables
- 36 words
- Words recorded on tape (DUC
devices), so the divers could hear
taped words and instructions
- Practice session- learn breathing technique
- Lists were presented twice
- After the 2nd time, participants heard
15 numbers they had to write down
- Stop words remaining in
short term memory
- Stop words remaining in
short term memory
- After the 2nd time, participants heard
15 numbers they had to write down
- 4 conditions, dry-dry, wet-dry etc
- Participants were given word lists to learn
- CONDITIONS
- DRY CONDITION
- Sitting by the water with gear on
- Sitting by the water with gear on
- WET CONDITION
- 20 feet below surface, weighed down
- 20 feet below surface, weighed down
- DRY CONDITION
- RESULTS
- Words learnt + recalled in same context were recalled best
- Mean recall was around 50% higher
when it took place in the same
environment as learning
- For example
- Water + Water= 32%
- Water + Land= 24%
- Water + Water= 32%
- Words learnt + recalled in same context were recalled best
- CONCLUSION
- Results demonstrate how the
environment can act as a context cue
- Helps aid recall
- Prevents forgetting
- Helps aid recall
- Results demonstrate how the
environment can act as a context cue
