Background
Godden and Badeley 1975- Studied the effects of Context-Dependent Memory on deep sea divers
2 Types of Memory; Recall and Recognition
Environmental cues prompt memory
In Recognition the environment cues are 'outshined' by themseleves
Key Terms
Context Dependent Memory(CDM)
People remember better if they are remembering information in the same context where and when they learned the information
Recall
Short-answer questions where there are no cues given
Recognition
Remembering some information when cues are given (eg multiple choice questions)
Aim
Investigate CDM effects on both recall and recognition
Students may be using study habits that do not work in their favour under test conditions
Research Method
Lab Experiment
IV
Study Context: Silent or Noisy
Test Context: Silent or Noisy
DV
Recall test: 10 Short-answer questions
Recognition test: 16 Multiple choice questions (each had 4 choices)
Independent Measures
Sample
8 Psychology Students each chose 5 P's that were aquaintances
Opertunity
Students had to have known the P's and have been in there when asked to take part in a study about CDM
40 Particpants
17 Females, 23 males
17-56 yrs, Mean age=23.4
39 P's had recorded data (1 male was omitted score too low)
Procedure
Materials
Each experimenter used their own cassette player and headphones
The 'Noisy' Condition was a recording of noise at lunchtime in a University cafeteria
Information learnt- 2 page article with 3 columns about psychoimmunology
Tests
The Recognition test; 16 Multiple choice questions each with 4 choices
The Recall test; 10 Short answer questions each required a one-word/ short phrase answer
The info in the text was in the same order as in the test
P's did the Recall test first, then the recognition test(avoid cues from the recognition test giving them answers for the recall test)
Lasted 30 mins in total
Were read aloud the instructions, can read and highlight at same time
Controls
Same Background noise
Order of tests
Always wearing headphones apart from a 2 minute break
Tested individually
Highlight/underline while reading the article
Debriefed at the end (told what the study was about)
Data&Results
Quantitive
Conclusions
Students are likely to perform better in exams if they study for them with minimum background noise
Students get a better score if they learn information in the same environment as the test
Evaluation
Ethics
Upheld
Informed consent obtained, Debriefed, No harm
Reliability
Internal
Replicable due to many controls, Standardised procedure using a controlled environment
External
There was a consistent effect between matching and mismatching conditions
Validity
Internal
High deisgn validity
External (Ecological Validity EV)
Low- Don't have a 2 minute break between learning the info to being tested on it in an exam
High- Tested in a normal environment
Ethnocentrism
Not Ethnocentric- Investigates a species-specific behaviour.
Ethnocentric- Conducted in America, results may be different if conducted on others who don't have a western education
Debates
Psychology as a Science
Lab Experiment; Scientific criteria fulfilled, Supports that Psychology is a scientific descipline
Usefulness
Useful to a student to an extent as long as not everyone uses it otherwise it would cancel out it's usefulness
Individual-Situational
The Situation determines their performance
Freewill -Determinism
Results are pre-determined by basis of study
Relates to...
Cognitive Area
Studies memory, CDM of meaningful prose in students
Key Theme Memory
Effects of CDM on recall and recognition of info, changed our understanding by investigating another aspect of Memory
