The immense growth of research on implicit and explicit memory is making it difficult to keep up with new methods and findings, to gauge the implications of new discoveries, and to ferret out new directions in research and theory development. The present volume provides a status report of work on implicit and explicit memory in the three areas that have contributed the bulk of what is known about... Read more

Biography

Peter Graf, Michael E.J. Masson

"...provides an excellent overview of research on implicit memory. It is written at a level that can be understood by experts in other scientific fields and provides enough introductory material and definitions of tasks and theories to be accessible to graduate students and advanced undergraduates. The book presents material from a wide variety of disciplines, providing the reader with a broad enough understanding to critically evaluate theoretical and empirical issues in implicit memory."
—Contemporary Psychology

"The volume is impressive in conveying how much has been learned about implicit memory, the impact this knowledge has had on our understanding of memory, and how much remains to be known."
—American Journal of Psychology

"The growing interest in this topic has made it difficult to keep up with new empirical findings, and theoretical and methodological developments, especially because research is going on in several different domains at the same time. Therefore, Implicit Memory... is most welcome....this book represents a readable and comprehensive overview of the current research on implicit and explicit memory, and many of its chapters also suggest new directions for further studies. It demonstrates how researchers in different domains can exchange ideas and cooperate towards an interdisciplinary goal of understanding memory and cognition. I recommend this book to everyone interested in the study of learning, memory, and cognition in general."
—European Journal of Cognitve Psychology, 1995, Volume 7, Number 2
