contents The relative value of environmental context reinstatement in free recall Ángel Fernández María A. Alonso Psicología aging free recall Environmental context The effect of environmental context on episodic memory was examined intwo free recall experiments with groups of old and young subjects. Allsubjects studied a list of unrelated words and were subsequently tested in thesame room or in a different room. The results of Experiment 1 showed anadvantage of being tested in the same context for the old subjects, but noeffects of the context manipulation for the young subjects. Experiment 2replicated this finding and additionally showed that old subjects (but notyoung subjects) benefited from instructions to mentally reinstate thelearning context. The results of both experiments are discussed in terms ofthe relative value of contextual cues for subjects in each of the two agegroups. 2001 artículo científico 0211-2159 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=16922206 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=169 Psicológica application/pdf Universitat de València Psicológica (España) Num.2 Vol.22
