CUEING ON

MEMORY TEST
Presented by Group 1
Memory
Memory is a constructive process in
which we relate memories to the
meaning, guesses and expectations
that we give to the events the
memory represents. (Feldman,
1999).
Memory Access

ENCODING RECOVERED
STORAGE

There are two main methods of accessing memory: recognition and recall.
Recognition is theassociation of an event or physical object with one previously
experienced or encountered, andinvolves a process of comparison of
information with memory, e.g. recognizing a known face
Definition
Cueing on recall also known as retrieval cue involves using external
stimuli or cues to trigger the retrieval of stored information from
memory. These cues can be anything from words, images, sounds, or
even environmental contexts that are associated with the
information to be recalled.
OR
It is a stimulus used to bring a memory to consciousness or to cue a
behaviour.
Introduction of test
A recall test is a test of memory in which participants are presented with stimuli
and then, after a delay, are asked to remember as many of the stimuli as
possible. Memory performance can be indicated by measuring the percentage
of stimuli the participant was able to recall. A cued recall test is a procedure for
testing memory in which a participant is presented with cues, such as words or
phrases, to aid recall of previously experienced stimuli. A cue is a stimulus, either
consciously or unconsciously perceived, that elicits or signals a type of behaviour

Types of Tests
THERE ARE THREE MAIN TYPES OF MEMORY RECALL. WE
WILL DISCUSS ALL OF THEM ONE BY ONE:

1. FREE RECALL
2. SERIAL RECALL
3. CUED RECALL
Experiment
Name: Effect of
cueing on recall
Experiment is based
on G. Wood’s
experiment
Description
Objective
To study the effect of cueing on recall.
Hypothesis
Cueing has a positive effect on recall.
Variables
Independent variable: The presence of cues in the second series
Dependent variable: The number of words correctly recalled in each list
Controls/ Precautions
1. The time of exposure is limited to two seconds per word.
2. A five minute rest pause is given between series to avoid fatigue.
Plan
Compare recall under the two conditions of free and cues recall – each given in a
separate series
Description
Material
1.Two lists of words of thirty words each, where –
a. The words in list A are selected randomly
b. The words in list B are selected in such a way that they fall into five categories with
six words in each category.
2.Plain response sheet for recall of list A.
3.Response sheet with the names of five categories printed on them for recall of list B
4.Stop clock.
Procedure
Series 1 – Free recall
Allow five minutes rest pause before beginning the second series.
Series 2 – Cued recall
Description
Instruction
“Listen to the words actively as I read them out, as you have to recall them
later.”

Analysis of result
1.Find the number of words correctly recalled from each list separately.
2.Calculate the difference; Difference = score in series 2 – score in series 1.
3.Calculate mean for the group
Applications
1 Education

2 Clinical Psychology

3 Market Research

4 Language Learning

5 Forensic Investigations
