Preferred term

tetrahedral model  

Definition

  • A model of memory experiments according to which memory phenomena "depend on what kinds of subjects we study, what kinds of acquisition conditions we provide, what kinds of materials we choose to work with, and what kinds of criterial measures we obtain. Furthermore, the dependences themselves are complex; the variables interact vigorously with one another. " (Jenkins, 1979, p. 431).
