Participants were 145 undergraduates. They were divided into two groups, namely the semantic and the graphemic groups. In the orienting task, 71 participants in semantic group were asked to rate the meaing of each target on a scale of evaluation, power or activity demension. Whereas 74 participants in grapemic group were asked to rate the graphemic image of each character of target on a scale of complexity, formality or stability. In each orientng task list, all targets were presented twice, the number of interpolated words between the first and the second presentation was fixed at five for the spaced presentation, but there were no interpolated words in the massed presentation. For both groups, the orienting tasks were followed by the interpolated task and the unexpected free recall tests. The result indicated the spacing effect, namely the superiority of the spaced presentation to the massed presentation in free recall performance, and that the type of character in the first prsentation and the second prsentation had effects on recall performance and the size of spacing effects. The spacing effects and the recall performance were smaller in a condition that each target was presented by Hiragana characters in both of the first and the second presentations (Hiragana-Hiragana) compared with other conditions (Kanji-Kanji, Kanji-Hiragana, and Hiragana-Kanji). These results were interpreted as showing that semantic activation which was determinant of spacing effect was facilitated by processing of Kanji character more effectively than by that of Hiragana one in incidental free recall.}, pages = {35--41}, title = {記憶における分散効果と表記型}, volume = {63}, year = {2014} }
