A Psychology Classic,
By A Customer
This review is from: Remembering: A Study in Experimental and Social Psychology (Paperback)
This is one of the classic texts of experimental psychology and a must-read for memory researchers. It introduces the concept of a "schema" and includes multiple landmark studies. It is easy to read, including many examples and illustrations. It should be on every psychologist's shelf next to James' Principles of Psychology and Ebbinghaus' Memory (which, interestingly, is the inspiration for Bartlett's title; Bartlett considered human memory dynamic, thus the verb form contrasting with Ebbignhaus' storehouse view). Don't ignore these and other classic texts in your study of modern experimental psychology!

Writing and Remembering,
By José Campos de Azevedo (Portugal) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Remembering: A Study in Experimental and Social Psychology (Hardcover)
That's a fact the pshycological tests don't use this kind of evaluation. However in the educational field there's some important factors to use this strategy. With this method we can reach some points of the development of writing in the youth.José Azevedo
