Forty elderly adults were required to memorize a list of | |
15 simple nouns belonging to three separate categories. | |
The arrangement of the list of nouns (randomized or | |
completely categorized) and instructions (instructed that | |
the nouns could be in terms of categories or not | |
instructed) were manipulated as factors. Individuals | |
participating in the categorized-instruction condition | |
recalled an exceptionally high percentage of nouns and | |
demonstrated a high degree of category clustering of | |
those nouns. The results of the study were interpreted as | |
indicating that the elderly person's performance when | |
dealing with to-be-recalled stimulus material varies as a | |
function of the organizational demands placed upon him. | |
