“…Intrusions tend to be rare in free recallof lists of nominally unrelated items(see, e.g., Erdelyi, Finks, & Feigen-Pfau, 1989), although they occur regularly in recall of lists of categorically related words (Cofer, 1967;Cofer, Bruce, & Reicher, 1966;Rabinowitz, Mandler, & Patterson, 1977). Intrusions in recall of such lists tend to be items from list-relevant categories.…”

“…plemented by reports of specific memories is consistent with resultsof a variety of laboratory experiments on memory. In experiments in which subjects are asked to recall lists of categorically related words, intrusion rates increase as retention intervals are lengthened (Cofer, 1967;Cofer et al, 1966;Rabinowitzet al, 1977). Similarly, in recall of more complex material, the influence of memory schemas on retrieval increases as retention interval is lengthened: Graesser (1981) proposed that after some amount of time has elapsed following the presentation of to-he-remembered material, virtually nothing specific is remembered, and that after that point, subjects respond entirely on the basis of a relevant schema.…”

The problem o f specifying the ways in which culture influences cognitive processes is discussed using the relation between culture and memory as a special case. Beginning with scattered suggestions f r o m the anthropological and psychological literature, a research strategy combining ethnolinguistic and experimental psychological techniques is described. Mnemonic performance is shown to depend upon a host o f situational (cultural) factors which must be systematically explored in order t o determine culture-memory relations.
