Variable Definitions for Memory Assessment Methods

Variable Group	Variable	Definition
Memory Task Characteristics	Recall Recognition Associative	reproduction of a previously presented stimulus identification of a previously presented stimulus and/or rejection of new stimuli task that involves remembering two or more stimuli
	Recognition	identification of a previously presented stimulus and/or rejection of new stimuli
	Associative	task that involves remembering two or more stimuli
	Non-Associative	task that involves remembering individual stimuli
	Associative Recall	reproduction of binded/related stimuli
	Non-Associative Recall	reproduction of individual stimuli
	Associative Recognition	identification of binded/related stimuli
	Non-Associative Recognition	identification of individual stimuli
	Verbal	task that only involve words
	Pictorial	task that only involves images
	Verbal+Pictorial	task that involves verbal and pictorial stimuli
	Spatial	task that requires remembering locations
	Non-Spatial	task that is independent of location
Memory Phase	Encoding	Initial learning; learning acquisition score
	Immediate Retrieval	retrieval performance after a short retention interval (less than 5 minutes)
	Delayed Retrieval	retrieval performance after a longer retention interval (greater than 5 minutes)
