Dear Sirs, Could you explain me what "recognition memory" is in psychology? I am a physicist and I think this is maybe main memory system for humans. In Russian books it is absent...
Thank you very much for extensive list of articles on my question. I will search basics about it. Could anyone reply on the more specific question. Is recognition memory involved in episodic human memory? According to Luria`s memory determination the memory is a mutually connected complex which includes elementary sensor information (color, form), perception (like "I saw a book" or "I saw a car"), thoughts about it. Anyone could say about memory more deeply or give good book to read?
