Download or read book A Dictionary of Mnemonics PLE Memory written by Various and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2014-05-09 with total page 57 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Greeks invented them. All manner of people in the European Middle Ages used them, often with creative and brilliant effect. Victorian schoolmasters in England almost buried them and the pupils who had to cram facts parrot-fashion. Originally published in 1972, this title brought mnemonics back into focus with a new collection designed for current use. A mnemonic is anything that gets your memory working. When in the month does the third quarter-day fall? What order have the planets from the sun? Are you sure about the kings and queens of England? People nowadays have so much to remember that even those quite happy with √2 = 1.414 may prefer to chant ‘I wish I know the root of two’ and remind themselves in that way. Although some entries are very much of their time, this title reminds us that mnemonics are still a useful tool in a world where technology means most people feel they have little need to remember.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1902, this title was discovered as a manuscript after the author’s death and was published 4 years later. David Kay published articles on various subjects and was one of the sub-editors on the eighth edition of Encyclopaedia Britannica. After writing an article on mnemonics he became very interested in the subject of memory.

A great opportunity to read one of the early discussions on human memory.

Book excerpt: This book bridges the gap between basic memory research and mnemonic applications through a careful analysis of the processes that underlie effective memory aids. The book traces the history of mnemonics, examines popular techniques, and discusses the current relevance of mnemonics to both psychological researchers and those seeking to improve their memory. Using a unique approach (termed "mnemonology"), the authors seek not necessarily to promote specific mnemonic techniques, but to provide information which will allow one to improve memory by creating their own mnemonics.

Download or read book Experimental Psycholinguistics PLE Psycholinguistics written by Sam Glucksberg and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2013-10-23 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How is speech produced and understood in the context of everyday communication? First published in 1975, this book is considered one the best of the early books in this field. The task of psycholinguistics is to discover how people produce and comprehend speech. This encompasses virtually all aspects of psychology, including perceptual, conceptual, and social processes. The authors tried to capture the flavour of this approach to the psychology of language by describing the major contemporary issues, problems, and phenomena, of the time, being dealt with in laboratories and in field studies, and by trying to make sense of the data they had. Experimental Psycholinguistics: An Introduction does not try to deal exhaustively with any one issue in linguistics or in psychology. Rather it tries to integrate the authors’ knowledge of language and language behaviour so that someone entering the field has an intelligible framework with which to start.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Improved System of Mnemonics, Vol. 1: Or Art of Assisting the Memory, Simplified, and Adapted to the General Branches of Literature; With a Dictionary of Words, Used as Signs of the Arithmetical Figures In introducing this system to the Public, the Author feels the necessity of stating the motives that chiefly influenced him, in presuming to appear before so high a tribunal. Having delivered Lectures upon Mnemonics, in most of the principal towns in the kingdom; wherein he unfolded their general principles, and particular arrangements, with instructions how to adapt them to many of the leading branches of literature; he had the pleasure of observing the gratification, which the knowledge of the art gave to the greater part of those that attended him, who were generally anxious in their esquiries, whether he meant to publish the system, which they conceived would be useful as a book of reference, either to direct their own operations, or instruct their families; not a work merely to explain the theory, but in it also to furnish associations for several subjects, that are frequently studied, and by many deemed essential to a good education. To render it useful, this latter part was considered indispensable; for although the ingenuity, and utility of Mnemonics were generally admitted, yet objections were often started to them, by stating the difficulty, or apparent difficulty, of making proper or suitable combinations, which the art required. These objections were urged, particularly by those persons, that were either engaged in business, or other pursuits, who Mere desirous of commiting the assimilations to memory, but were not inclined to take the trouble of making them.
