The dorsal visual pathway is also known as the...

What pathway

Temporal pathway

Parietal pathway (correct)

Ventral pathway

The study by Karpicke and Roediger (published in Science in 2008) on the importance of retrieval shows that

Once an item is learned, repeated testing (without learning) does have a positive effect on retrieving the materials.

Once you can reproduce a learned item, learning is not finished yet.

Once an item is learned, repeated study (without retrieval) does not have a positive effect on retrieving the materials.

All of the statements listed here. (correct)

Consider an experiment where participants listen to a wordlist, such as “daughter, oil, rifle, garden, grain, table, football, anchor, giraffe…” and are instructed to report the last word starting with a G.

The amount of time a word is in working memory will not affect the chance of recall in a surprise recall task (correct)

When they have to recall all words, they will be able to better recall words which were in working memory for a shorter time.

The data will depend on the level of motivation of the participant.

The data of this task contradict the Law of Repetition put forward by Ebbinghaus.
