Introduction
Each of these studies incorporated similar features. Firstly, in some form each study analyzed or looked at the generation effect. The generation effect is the finding that self-generated stimuli will be both recalled and recognize with better performance than for read stimuli. This effect has been demonstrated primarily with words, yet each of these studies used pictorial stimuli in each of the experiments as opposed to using words.
