Abstract

A transfer paradigm was used to test whether people can use the knowledge structure to help learn two script-based texts that contained the same script. People studied the first text and the second text that contained the different activities from the first one for a later recognition test. In two experiments, I found that the transfer effect on learning the second text was mediated by the number, the typicality, the level, and the position of activities contained in the first text. The results are consistent with the account based on spreading activation models. It concluded that these scripts factors have different influences on episodic memory for text from what they have on the retrieval of activities from long-term memory.
