| Abstract: |
The use of mnemonics, or memory enhancement, has existed since ancient times in various forms. More recently, the precise neurological and psychological implications of various mnemonics have been studied, comparing the efficacy of different mnemonics in an effort not only to improve memory capabilities, but also to explore the way the brain stores data. Specifically, it has recently been hinted that the various sensory modalities of the brain both share and divide attention across modalities. The present study sought to assess memory improvement produced by two sensory modality conditions designed to elicit implicit mnemonic formation during proper name recognition: exposure to facial stimulus and exposure to vocal stimulus. These stimulus exposures were tested in both primed and unprimed recognition conditions. No significant differences were found relative to the control in any of these conditions; however, unsolicited participant responses did reveal important information about individual spontaneous use of mnemonic devices. |
