Task Demands And Age-Related Differences In Retrieval And Response Inhibition, Steffen Wilson, Katherine Kipp, Jennifer Daniels Oct 2003

Task Demands And Age-Related Differences In Retrieval And Response Inhibition, Steffen Wilson, Katherine Kipp, Jennifer Daniels

Steffen Wilson

This study investigates the role of task demands on children's ability to inhibit irrelevant information using a block-cued directed-forgetting task. Recall performance was compared in a block-cued directed-forgetting task in which task demands had been decreased by presenting blocks of semantically related words with that in which unrelated words were presented. Inhibition patterns of recall were found at a younger age in the task that contained the related words than in the task that contained the unrelated words. These results suggest that previous results charting the development of cognitive inhibition may not have been exclusively the product of the development …


Limits Of The Retrieval Inhibition Construct: List Segregation In Directed-Forgetting, Steffen Wilson, Katherine Kipp, Kevin Chapman Sep 2003

Limits Of The Retrieval Inhibition Construct: List Segregation In Directed-Forgetting, Steffen Wilson, Katherine Kipp, Kevin Chapman

Steffen Wilson

The authors hypothesized that retrieval inhibition in list method directed forgetting could be improved by presenting a task that maximized the segregation step of the retrieval-inhibition process. In Experiment 1, they presented lists of semantically related words in a list method directed-forgetting task to maximize retrieval inhibition. Contrary to predictions, this manipulation eliminated the directed-forgetting effect. The authors further investigated the results of Experiment 1 in Experiments 2 and 3 by manipulating recall instructions and by presenting lists that contained both a categorized and an unrelated list-half. They found directed-forgetting effects for semantically related word lists when participants were asked …
