  • Title: Remembering can cause inhibition: retrieval-induced inhibition as cue independent process.
    Author: Veling H, van Knippenberg A.
    Journal: J Exp Psychol Learn Mem Cogn; 2004 Mar; 30(2):315-8. PubMed ID: 14979806.
    Abstract:
    Previous experiments have mostly relied on recall as a dependent measure to assess whether retrieval of information from memory causes inhibition of related information. This study aimed to measure this inhibition in a more direct way. In Experiment 1, it was shown that repeated retrieval of exemplars from a category resulted in longer recognition latencies to nonretrieved exemplars from that same category, compared with recognition latencies to control exemplars. Experiment 2 obtained the same pattern of results using a lexical decision task. This was the 1st time that retrieval-induced forgetting was demonstrated on an implicit test of memory. To exclude noninhibitory explanations of the data, the exemplars were presented in both experiments without their categories as cues.
