Search of associative memory.

Abstract: A general theory of retrieval from long-term memory combines features of associative network models and random search models. It posits cue-dependent probabilistic sampling and recovery from an associative network, but the network is specified as a retrieval structure rather than a storage structure. The theory is labeled SAM, meaning Search of Associative Memory. A quantitative simulation of SAM is developed and applied to the part-list cuing paradigm. When free recall of a list of words is cued by a random s… Show more

“…Both our account and formal implementations of dual-store accounts (e.g., Atkinson & Shiffrin, 1968;Raaijmakers & Shiffrin, 1981) are consistent with the main features of the serial-position data, but the holographic model captures a more complete picture of performance. Neither account is forced by the data.…”

“…The privileged access to the recency items may reflect the output of a short-term store in dual store accounts of IFR (Anderson, et al, 1998;Davelaar et al, 2005;Raaijmakers & Shiffrin, 1981), or be the result of greater temporal distinctiveness (Brown et al, 2007) or a greater match with the end-of-list context (Howard & Kahana, 2002;Polyn, et al, 2009;Sederberg, et al, 2008;Tan & Ward, 2000) in unitary accounts of IFR.…”

“…Our model of recall is based on a simplified search-and-recovery mechanism similar to SAM and to a variety of applications of similar models to recall (Raaijmakers & Shiffrin, 1981;Shiffrin & Steyvers, 1997Diller et al, 2001;Malmberg, 2008). We assume that, as in our base model, features of the test item are gradually sampled into a memory probe that contains both content and context features.…”

“…Just a dynamic approach sheds light on recognition, we believe such an approach will be fruitful in these other domains, and has already done so in many cases. The simplified cued recall model we proposed to explain source memory judgments was, in turn, based on a samplingand-recovery model of recall (Raaijmakers & Shiffrin, 1981;Diller et al, 2001) that was itself motivated by the dynamics of inter-retrieval times and stopping times. The temporal context model (Howard & Kahana, 2002) has also been extended to account for the dynamics of recall using a competing accumulator approach similar to the one we have used to explain recognition (Sederberg, Howard, & Kahana, 2008;Polyn, Norman, & Kahana, 2009).…”
