The Prominence of Lexical Information in Memory Representations of Meaning
Hayes-Roth, Barbara; Hayes-Roth, Frederick
Journal of Verbal Learning and Verbal Behavior, 16, 1, 119-136, Feb 77
Many theories of memory assume memory representations are abstract and exclude specific lexical information. Results of three experiments in this study suggest lexical information is present and persists in memory representations of meaning. A word-based theory of memory should be preferred over available theoretical alternatives. (CHK)
