Memory for conversation and the development of common ground

Abstract: Efficient conversation is guided by the mutual knowledge, or common ground, that interlocutors form as a conversation progresses. Characterized from the perspective of commonly used measures of memory, efficient conversation should be closely associated with item memory-what was said-and context memory-who said what to whom. However, few studies have explicitly probed memory to evaluate what type of information is maintained following a communicative exchange. The current study examined how item and context me… Show more

“…This effect can be interpreted as a type of generation effect (Slamecka & Graf, 1978). Further, the fact that longer comments produced better recognition extends prior findings from studies of in-laboratory image descriptions (McKinley et al, 2017) to a class of images -Instagram poststhat are both ubiquitous and socially relevant. This effect can be considered a type of elaborative encoding effect (Bradshaw & Anderson, 1982) such that the more elaborately the participant commented on the post, the better the memory.…”

“…Predictions Recent studies in our laboratory revealed that following conversation, partners had better memory for pictures that they described themselves than for ones their partner described (McKinley et al, 2017;Yoon et al, 2016). If this generation benefit extends to written comments in online communication, we hypothesized that memory would be better for Instagram posts for which individuals generated original comments than for posts that were passively viewed.…”
