2.5.8. Memory awareness (R/K test)
At the end of each reading session, participants were also asked to complete a tailor-made version of the Remember/Know test (R/K – Tulving, 1985), a largely employed tool for gauging the nature and quality of recall and – by implication – learning. The R/K test is based on two main types of retrieval response, namely ‘‘Remember’’ and ‘‘Know’’. While the recollection of episodic details (R) belongs to episodic memory, the familiarity in the absence of recollection
(K) refers to semantic memory. Garland and Noyes (2004) suggested that the cognitive processing taking place when learning from EVDs and paper is different, mainly because the characteristics of the computer screen might interfere with cognitive processing for long-term memory, causing a larger employ of episodic memory. To this end thirty words – of which only fifteen effectively appeared in the text – were selected. The proportion of recognized items (R/K) was calculated as the ratio between the recognized items (either R or K) and the number of words that really appeared in the text (i.e. 15). These words were chosen according to three main criteria, i.e. one-single presentation in the text, no proper names, and homogeneous distribution within the text.
