Adaptive Memory: Generality of the Parent Processing Effect and Effects of Biological Relatedness on Recall

2019-10-27

Abstract excerpt

<p>The adaptive memory framework posits that the human memory system is an evolved cognitivefeature, in which stimuli relevant to fitness are better remembered than neutral stimuli. There is now substantial evidence that processing a neutral stimulus in terms of its relevancy to an imagined ancestral survival scenario produces enhances recall, although there is still disagreement concerning the proximate mechanism...
